Strengths

To improve
- “Generally, they attend well, although some pupils need to attend more regularly to benefit fully from everything the school offers.”
- “However, pupils' handwriting varies in key stage 1.”
- “Some pupils' handwriting lacks fluency, and inaccuracies in letter formation affect the presentation of their work across subjects.”
