School remains Good Inspected 26 May 2023
Strengths
- “Leaders and staff have high expectations for all pupils both academically and socially.”
- “Pupils treat one another, staff and visitors with respect.”
- “The atmosphere around the school is calm and purposeful.”
To improve
- “However, leaders have not yet identified how pupils will learn what it means to be an ‘expert’ in their subjects.”
- “A significant number of pupils are persistently absent from school, including pupils with SEND.”
- “Although leaders have established routines for addressing persistent absence, they are not sufficiently robust to improve attendance.”
