Strengths
- “Pupils experience a calm, welcoming and friendly school.”
- “They are greeted every day by staff who know them well and notice how they are feeling.”
- “Pupils settle quickly because well-established routines and clear expectations make school life predictable and safe.”
To improve
- “This approach is less systematic for older pupils.”
- “On some occasions, teachers do not efficiently check what pupils already know.”
- “This means they spend too much time recapping knowledge that is already secure when they could move on to new learning sooner.”
