Strengths
- “Pupils and staff are proud of their school and its diversity.”
- “They are supported by caring staff who help them to quickly learn the school routines.”
- “Pupils say they feel safe and know that they can speak with a trusted adult if they have any worries or concerns.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects and in the early years, the essential knowledge that should be taught is not as clearly defined.”
- “This makes it harder for teachers to design learning, and then accurately check that pupils are learning and remembering all that they should.”
