Strengths
- “Pupils, parents and carers unite in their view that Lark Hall is a caring and special community.”
- “They arrive ready to learn and keen to see their friends.”
- “They build warm, trusting relationships with staff.”
To improve
- “However, staff do not always notice and correct errors, such as incorrect letter formation, quickly enough.”
- “When these mistakes persist, pupils repeat them, which hinders their fluency and accuracy.”
- “However, they do not have enough opportunities to reason mathematically to deepen their understanding of key ideas.”
