Good Inspected 16 March 2022
Strengths
- “Relationships between staff and pupils are strong.”
- “Leaders understand the community and the families well.”
- “Everyone in the school community feels part of ‘Team Redwood’.”
To improve
- “Leaders know that some subject leaders do not have as much understanding about how well the area of learning in their subject is delivered in early years.”
- “However, in phonics lessons and the additional support sessions, teachers sometimes miss opportunities to find out exactly which parts of reading pupils are finding difficult.”
- “However, the targets for pupils with SEND are not consistently precise and measurable enough to ensure pupils are practising and embedding knowledge well enough.”
