Strengths
- “Pupils receive a high level of care at this small and welcoming school.”
- “They strive to live up to the school’s core values, including enthusiasm, aspiration, respect and service.”
- “Pupils are happy and feel safe.”
To improve
- “However, they can sometimes struggle to make links with what they have learned before.”
- “This is because the school does not use its checks effectively to ensure that pupils learn and remember the curriculum in the longer term.”
- “Consequently, this makes it more difficult for pupils to build their knowledge securely over time in some subject areas.”
