Strengths
- “Fairlawn Primary is a welcoming school, which lies at the heart of the local community.”
- “Relationships between staff and pupils are strong.”
- “The school values, which include respect, responsibility and resilience, underpin these positive relationships.”
To improve
- “However, in some foundation subjects, teaching is not well matched to what teachers intend for pupils to learn.”
- “This does not support pupils to develop a secure understanding of the key concepts and ideas that will help them later.”
- “However, in some subjects, assessment does not identify pupils’ misconceptions or highlight when pupils are ready to move on to new learning.”
