Strengths
- “From the moment pupils enter the doors at this inclusive school, staff are warm and welcoming.”
- “Pupils’ well-being is at the core of everything that happens at Burford.”
- “Staff develop positive relationships with pupils and their families.”
To improve
- “However, children in the early years do not consistently benefit from a well-designed or taught curriculum.”
- “In a minority of subjects, the school has not identified how teachers should help pupils to remember their learning.”
- “This means that pupils do not routinely get the opportunity to recall previous learning and make links to their current learning.”
