Strengths
- “There is a positive culture in this inclusive school.”
- “Pupils are recognised and celebrated as individuals.”
- “This helps the school to be a calm and welcoming environment.”
To improve
- “Poor attendance is a high priority for leaders.”
- “However, in a small number of subjects, they find it difficult to recall and connect things they have learned over time.”
- “Leaders recognise that this is because the teaching of some subjects needs to be adapted to take account of pupils’ prior knowledge.”
