Strengths
- “The school’s values of respect, belonging and aspiration are part of daily life.”
- “Pupils appreciate the rewards and recognition they receive for displaying these values.”
- “Consequently, most pupils in the school behave well.”
To improve
- “While this is evident in the quality of education pupils currently receive, it is not reflected in the outcomes of national tests.”
- “However, teaching of the wider curriculum does not follow the same effective approaches consistently.”
- “At times it is too variable in quality and impact.”
