Strengths
- “Kanes Hill is an inclusive place with a strong family ethos.”
- “Pupils thrive in this caring community.”
- “Staff are united in their determination for all pupils to succeed.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, teachers do not systematically check pupils’ understanding before moving on to new learning.”
