Strengths
- “Hamp Academy has a calm and orderly atmosphere.”
- “Pupils are respectful and polite to one another.”
- “They enjoy learning in a caring environment and listen well to their teachers.”
To improve
- “However, this does not happen as well in some curriculum areas.”
- “Where subjects are less well developed, leaders have not identified precisely enough what pupils need to know and by when.”
- “In geography and history, for example, pupils do not always remember and use the technical skills and knowledge they have been taught before.”
