Strengths
- “Pupils celebrate the inclusive nature of this school community.”
- “They are proud to attend a place where everyone is welcome and different cultures are celebrated.”
- “For example, pupils discussed with relish the recent ‘culture days’ during which they learned about food, customs and native dress of different countries.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects, there is not a consistently sharp connection between the intended learning and the activities undertaken in lessons.”
- “When this happens, pupils are not developing their knowledge and understanding in the way that is envisaged by the school.”
- “In other areas of the curriculum, however, these checks are not as consistently effective.”
