Strengths
- “Pupils benefit enormously from their time at this school.”
- “Strong relationships exist between teaching staff and pupils.”
- “Pupils are confident that teachers will help them if they have a worry.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects, the school has not identified the key skills, knowledge and vocabulary they expect pupils to learn and when.”
- “This means sometimes teaching does not build on pupils’ prior learning effectively enough.”
- “In addition, on occasions, teaching is not adapted to address pupils’ errors or misconceptions.”
