Strengths
- “Pupils love coming to school and enjoy the wide range of subjects they can study.”
- “They appreciate the lunchtime sporting equipment and activities on offer and clubs, such as ‘sporty stars’ where they can play dodgeball and football.”
- “Leaders are ambitious for pupils to do well.”
To improve
- “However, this is not as consistent in some other subjects.”
- “In these cases, teachers are not as clear where there may be gaps and misconceptions to address.”
- “Pupils show an understanding of school rules and voting for the school council and cabinet, but their understanding of the concept of fundamental British values is more variable.”
