School remains Good Inspected 15 May 2024
Strengths
- “High-quality pastoral support helps pupils to learn how to make friends and be a good friend.”
- “Pupils are very proud to be part of school life.”
- “They study a broad curriculum and say that learning is ‘fun’.”
To improve
- “In the past, it took too long for pupils to learn to decode the sounds that letters make.”
- “However, some teaching does not check what pupils know within these sequences of work day by day or within lessons.”
- “When this happens, teaching does not address pupils’ misconceptions swiftly enough.”
