Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to be part of this warm and nurturing school.”
- “Strong relationships form the bedrock upon which the school builds its work.”
- “Staff know the pupils and their families well.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, pupils struggle to recall their learning.”
- “This is because the school’s strategies to embed learning in pupils’ long-term memory in these subjects are in their infancy.”
