Strengths
- “Linden Road Academy is a friendly and diverse school, where all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), are welcomed.”
- “Pupils are taught by staff to celebrate and value the different faiths and cultures within the school community.”
- “Leaders have effective systems to tackle any incidents of poor behaviour or bullying.”
To improve
- “However, from time to time, some teachers do not check sufficiently well whether pupils have understood their prior learning.”
- “As a result, some pupils hold misconceptions, which are not identified quickly enough.”
- “However, some pupils in key stage 1 have gaps in their reading knowledge due to weaknesses in the teaching of reading in the past.”
