Strengths
- “Leaders expect them to work hard and behave well.”
- “Pupils feel safe, happy and well looked after.”
- “They take turns, listen and work well in pairs and groups.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, the curriculum sequence is not well connected to the school’s curriculum in the Nursery.”
- “This means leaders are not clear about the progress the youngest children are making.”
- “However, leaders have not yet established routine checks to see the progress being made and to adjust the curriculum according to the needs of these pupils.”
