Strengths
- “Yoxford and Peasenhall Primary Academy is a calm and nurturing place in which to learn.”
- “They know that learning is important.”
- “Pupils develop a curiosity about the world around them.”
To improve
- “In some curriculum subjects, pupils need further support to connect their prior learning to new topics to fully deepen their understanding.”
- “However, in some subjects, teachers do not always check that pupils have a solid enough understanding of their prior learning.”
- “Therefore, when moving on to new content, some pupils find it hard to make connections with what they have learned before.”
