Strengths
- “An enthusiastic, friendly and hardworking ethos pervades this school community.”
- “Pupils look forward to coming to school.”
- “They cooperate well and are nearly always kind to each other.”
To improve
- “This means that it is not clear how these pupils will be helped to work towards long-term curriculum goals.”
- “This means that teaching does not consistently provide opportunities for pupils to deepen their understanding of mathematical concepts.”
- “However, pupils who are non-verbal are not always provided with suitable communication systems.”
