Strengths
- “This is because the school gives them exceptional experiences.”
- “Pupils immerse themselves in engaging activities linked to art, poetry, music and a diverse array of books.”
- “Pupils take pride in their class assemblies where everyone gets to join in.”
To improve
- “While the curriculum works well for most pupils, there are areas undergoing further change.”
- “This is because the knowledge pupils need is not always identified or laid out clearly.”
- “This makes it more difficult to build pupils’ understanding and harder for pupils to remember what they have learned.”
