Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy school life at St Michael’s Catholic Primary Academy and Nursery.”
- “They arrive at school on time and ready to learn each day.”
- “In lessons, they listen attentively and want to do their best.”
To improve
- “However, some pupils do not always get opportunities that enable them to learn key knowledge in the depth they should.”
- “However, at times, misconceptions are not always picked up and addressed quickly enough such as incorrect pronunciation of letter sounds.”
- “This means some pupils who have fallen behind in reading do not catch up to be fluent, confident readers quickly enough.”
