Strengths
- “Pupils are at the heart of this happy, nurturing school.”
- “One pupil said, ‘It is a school that makes you feel unique, but you also know that you belong to a special community.”
- “Pupils grow in confidence as they progress from Reception to Year 6.”
To improve
- “Where the curriculum is not as well developed, the precise knowledge is not as clear.”
- “This means that not all pupils are achieving as well as they could in all subjects.”
- “For a small number of disadvantaged pupils, this has not been as effective as it has for other pupils.”
