Strengths
- “Pupils want to come to this school because they like what they are learning here.”
- “They really enjoy the creative media, music and arts subjects and they make the most of the great resources available to them.”
- “As a result, pupils are happy at school and get a positive experience of education, something that many have not had previously.”
To improve
- “However, in some areas of subject curriculums, the school has not broken down the subject content into smaller parts so that pupils can fully achieve the intended curriculum end goals.”
- “It is sometimes not clear how parts of the curriculum develop for those pupils who stay at the school for more than one year.”
- “However, the school places less emphasis on creating a love of reading and ensuring that pupils access enriching wider reading opportunities.”
