Strengths
- “Tanners Brook Primary is an inclusive and vibrant school community.”
- “Staff and pupils understand and reflect the school’s vision of ‘Striving for our personal best to make our community proud’.”
- “Staff have high expectations of pupils’ conduct and what they can achieve.”
To improve
- “That said, on occasion, the school’s checks on what pupils know and remember are not as effective as they could be.”
- “As a result, some learning activities do not focus sufficiently on addressing the gaps in knowledge that some pupils have.”
- “A small number of pupils sometimes struggle to manage their behaviour or emotions.”
