Strengths
- “Pupils are positive advocates for their school.”
- “As children in the early years return from their outdoor learning session, they talk excitedly about the bee they have found after days of looking for one!”
- “However, the school knows pupils exceptionally well.”
To improve
- “Since lockdown, many pupils have found it harder to face personal challenge with determination.”
- “In some subjects, key knowledge is not identified with the same degree of precision and the sequence of learning is not as clear.”
- “However, staff do not have a formal system to check that every child has practised and rehearsed prior learning through their play.”
