Strengths
- “SS Peter and Paul Catholic Primary is a school where adults are ambitious for all pupils.”
- “Pupils are warmly welcomed to school each morning.”
- “Every day, pupils try hard to live the school rule ‘to be the person God wants you to be’.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, the sequence of knowledge and skills is not as clear.”
- “This means that pupils do not build on and deepen their learning securely in these subjects.”
- “Some pupils in key stage 1 do not always have the necessary skills to communicate effectively.”
