Strengths
- “Pupils rightly value how everyone is included in their school community.”
- “Pupils understand how harmful discrimination of any kind can be and make sure, along with their teachers, that it does not happen.”
- “This serves pupils extremely well.”
To improve
- “Although some pupils achieve exceptionally well, including some pupils with SEND, this is not consistently the case for the majority of pupils.”
- “This is because the curriculum is not as deep or challenging as it could be across subjects.”
- “Their learning about art, artists and what constitutes high-quality artwork, while secure, is not as strong.”
