Strengths
- “Pupils at St George’s are part of a welcoming and inclusive community.”
- “Safety, care and positive working relationships with staff and their peers shape everyday experiences.”
- “Pupils feel secure because staff are vigilant and respond quickly to concerns.”
To improve
- “However, attainment in mathematics and at the higher standard remains below national averages.”
- “This is particularly the case for the high number of pupils who join the school towards the end of key stage 2, with gaps in their knowledge.”
- “They do not benefit from the school's work to successfully secure the youngest children's reading, writing and mathematical knowledge.”
