Good Inspected 11 October 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils are proud of their school.”
- “They are happy and relish social times with their friends and learning alongside them in lessons.”
- “Pupils embrace the wide range of experiences on offer to them.”
To improve
- “In one or two subjects, and in some areas of learning in the early years, the school has not broken down the most important content in the curriculum to the same extent.”
- “This means that some teachers are unsure of the essential knowledge that pupils should learn and revisit.”
- “Consequently, these teachers’ checks on what pupils have learned are not as effective as they should be.”
