Strengths
- “Hearsall Community Academy is a very special place.”
- “Pupils are, rightly, incredibly proud to be part of this inclusive school.”
- “They enjoy attending school each day and are keen to learn.”
To improve
- “However, checks on learning in some lessons do not identify pupils’ misconceptions and gaps in knowledge quickly enough.”
- “As a result, some pupils do not recall knowledge as fluently as they should before they are moved on to new learning.”
