Strengths
- “Pupils at Saint Paulinus School embody the school’s mission statement ‘Love one another as I have loved you’.”
- “They know that it means to love and help everyone around them.”
- “These values are reflected in everything that pupils do.”
To improve
- “These are used well in mathematics but less effectively in some other subjects.”
- “For example, pupils can remember learning to play the samba drums in music but cannot link this to other topics that they have been taught, such as composition.”
- “However, there is some variation in how well adults use extra support to help pupils to practise their reading.”
