Strengths
- “Pupils value Penryn Primary Academy as a caring school.”
- “They know the importance of ensuring that everyone is included.”
- “One pupil, who summed up the view of many, said, ‘We are helping other people and making them kind and happy.”
To improve
- “However, as pupils move further up the school, they do not learn the curriculum as well.”
- “Variation in the teaching of the curriculum results in some pupils not gaining the depth of knowledge they need to be well prepared for future learning.”
- “This includes some pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) who do not benefit often enough from curriculum adaptations to help them to succeed.”
