Strengths
- “Respect is central to everything at this vibrant and inclusive school.”
- “Pupils are considerate of each other and respect their caring teachers.”
- “They trust all adults to listen to them.”
To improve
- “This has meant that, in a small number of subjects, monitoring does not identify precise strengths and areas for improvement.”
- “Where this is the case, staff do not get all the support and information they need to teach the curriculum consistently well.”
- “However, checks do not yet take place to ensure that this extra help matches the precise support that any of these pupils, including those with SEND, may need.”
