Strengths
- “Hollybrook Infants is an effective school.”
- “It has very high expectations for its pupils.”
- “Children get off to a great start in the early years, where they quickly settle and learn important school routines.”
To improve
- “However, occasionally, staff explanations and the activities that pupils complete do not link closely enough to the intended curriculum.”
- “When this happens, pupils do not deepen their knowledge as well as they should.”
