Strengths
- “Pupils warmly welcome overseas pupils, and those who speak English as an additional language.”
- “This helps new arrivals to settle quickly.”
- “The diverse culture within the school ensures that all pupils develop a common understanding of the wider world.”
To improve
- “Despite this, not all staff have had the training they need to deliver this programme effectively.”
- “However, pupils who struggle to learn to read do not read frequently enough to master the skills needed to become fluent and confident readers.”
- “However, the number of pupils who are persistently absent remains too high, especially those with SEND.”
