Strengths
- “Pupils at Milford Academy speak with genuine enthusiasm about their learning.”
- “They describe lessons as fun, exciting and full of moments that make them feel proud of what they achieve.”
- “They enjoy the wide range of subjects and experiences on offer.”
To improve
- “However, too many pupils do not attend regularly enough.”
- “High rates of persistent absenteeism limit how well some pupils learn over time and how effectively they access the ambitious curriculum.”
- “However, too many current pupils make errors in basic grammar and handwriting, and staff do not consistently identify or correct these mistakes.”
