Strengths
- “East Whitby Primary Academy is an inclusive and caring school.”
- “Deeply respectful and positive relationships exist between teachers and pupils.”
- “During lesson times, pupils’ behaviour is calm and focused.”
To improve
- “However, in some other subjects, the curriculum does not clearly define the important knowledge and vocabulary that pupils should remember.”
- “This leads to gaps in their understanding, and pupils’ use of subject specific language is less precise.”
- “The school’s choice to teach some subjects less frequently than others also hinders pupils’ recollection of the knowledge they have been taught.”
