Strengths
- “Pupils are enthusiastic about their learning.”
- “They show a commitment to their work and a desire to achieve.”
- “For example, at the start of the day, pupils keenly complete activities that consolidate their knowledge of spelling, grammar and number.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes teachers make adaptations to teaching that are not as effective as they could be in promoting pupils’ learning and meeting their needs.”
- “Nevertheless, there are occasions when the provision is not as purposeful as it could be in developing children’s number skills or engaging children in high-quality talk.”
- “In a few instances, leaders' monitoring and evaluation of these actions are not as rigorous as they could be.”
