Strengths
- “Pupils are proud of their caring and friendly school.”
- “Pupils respect their helpful teachers.”
- “They feel listened to by adults, who ‘take in what we say and follow it up’.”
To improve
- “However, senior leaders have not yet ensured that all curriculum leaders have the training and opportunity they need to check how well their subject is being taught across the school.”
- “As a result, not all curriculum leaders ensure that their subject curriculum is implemented consistently and that colleagues are helped to improve further.”
- “However, there are some pupils across the school who struggle to read.”
