Strengths
- “This is a highly inclusive school where pupils enjoy learning and receive very positive support for their personal development and wellbeing.”
- “They appreciate that leaders have designed a curriculum to meet pupils' individual needs.”
- “This helps to motivate them and encourages them to engage with learning joyfully each day.”
To improve
- “However, in a minority of subjects, the way that learning is sequenced does not best support pupils to build on their prior knowledge.”
- “This leads to teaching which, at times, is not precisely focused on developing pupils' learning progressively.”
