Strengths
- “Staff create a calm and safe environment where pupils are happy to learn.”
- “This is a caring and nurturing place where pupils receive the positive encouragement and the pastoral support they need to feel emotionally secure and socially confident.”
- “Staff have high expectations of pupils.”
To improve
- “A minority of subjects are less developed, and here content is less secure.”
- “In these subjects, key content is not taught consistently well, which limits pupils’ development of their knowledge and skills.”
- “While these initiatives are having a positive impact, they need more time to become fully embedded.”
