Strengths
- “Pupils feel happy and safe in their inclusive school.”
- “They treat one another with care, respect and empathy.”
- “Pupils live out the trust’s philosophy of: ‘Work hard, be honest and help others’.”
To improve
- “Occasionally, pupils do not link their knowledge from different subjects as well as the school intends.”
- “However, the school does not ensure that pupils link this with the knowledge that they gain in different subjects to create well-structured pieces of writing.”
- “This means that some pupils do not write as fluently as they could.”
