Strengths
- “Dunstall Hill Primary places pupils and their families at the heart of what they do.”
- “Central to the school is enabling all pupils to thrive and preparing them to become responsible, respectful and active citizens.”
- “The school achieves this because of the wider opportunities it provides pupils and the decisions it makes about the chosen curriculum.”
To improve
- “Whilst most of the staff make useful checks on learning in lessons, this is not always the case.”
- “This leads to some variation in how effectively staff identify and address any misconceptions.”
- “When this happens, pupils do not learn as well as they could.”
