Strengths
- “Pupils are proud members of this inclusive, warm and nurturing school.”
- “They are happy, feel safe and enjoy learning.”
- “Pupils know to talk to an adult if they have any concerns or worries.”
To improve
- “In some subjects, the activities that pupils complete do not focus sharply on the key knowledge and skills they need to learn.”
- “This means that pupils remember the activities they have completed rather than important content to support their future learning.”
