Strengths
- “Pupils are proud of their vibrant and welcoming school.”
- “They move around happily and greet visitors with a smile.”
- “Everyone is made to feel special.”
To improve
- “Sometimes, staff do not check closely that pupils have learned specific phonics sounds before moving on to other activities.”
- “While staff dedicate time and resources to help pupils to catch up, support is not precisely targeted to help pupils decode.”
- “However, sometimes assessment does not accurately identify how well pupils have learned and remembered essential knowledge.”
