Strengths
- “Abbeyfield Primary Academy is a school where pupils are placed at the heart of everything.”
- “Staff care deeply for the pupils.”
- “Strong and positive relationships ensure that pupils feel happy and safe at school.”
To improve
- “However, while teachers make regular checks on pupils’ learning, sometimes, in some subjects, these checks do not identify precisely where pupils have gaps in knowledge.”
- “This means that, at times, some pupils’ learning does not build successfully on what they already know.”
- “Pupils’ provisional outcomes in 2024 suggested that pupils leaving key stage 2 did not attain well in mathematics.”
