Some aspects not as strong Inspected 30 April 2025
Strengths
- “The school has high expectations for what pupils can achieve.”
- “Pupils enjoy coming to school.”
- “This is reflected in high attendance rates.”
To improve
- “However, these high aspirations are not fully reflected in the outcomes pupils attain.”
- “However, not all staff check routinely that pupils know and remember the knowledge they have been taught.”
- “Often, pupils are expected to move on to the next stage of their learning before securing previous knowledge.”
