Strengths
- “Pupils believe that their school’s slogan, ‘Happy Children, Successful Learners’, sums up Swannington perfectly.”
- “They enjoy coming to school each day and feel very safe there.”
- “They say that any bullying is very rare and that staff deal with it in a fair way.”
To improve
- “Leaders are making sure that staff are well trained to deliver this scheme, but this is not yet complete.”
- “In a small number of subjects, such as geography and history, teachers’ assessment of what pupils know is not precise.”
- “This risks pupils not learning as much as they could.”
