Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending this inclusive school.”
- “This is reflected in their improving attendance.”
- “Pupils who struggle to attend are supported through strong family partnerships.”
To improve
- “However, the curriculum has varied impact in developing pupils' reading and writing skills and knowledge.”
- “That said, teachers do not always adapt learning so that pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities access it confidently alongside their peers.”
- “Pupils do not consistently achieve well enough.”
