Strengths
- “Pupils in this school are friendly and welcoming.”
- “Pupils have trusted adults who come to their aid if they have any concerns or worries.”
- “Staff and pupils are caring towards each other and, together, create a strong sense of community in the school.”
To improve
- “In a few subjects, however, teaching does not focus on the knowledge that leaders have identified as being important for pupils’ future learning.”
- “When this happens, it affects how well pupils are able to remember and apply this subject content.”
- “In a few instances, though, extra help is not sharply focused on strengthening how well these pupils blend together the sounds that they have learned.”
