Strengths
- “Pupils are at the centre of this small and caring school.”
- “They, and the school, have mighty ambitions.”
- “Pupils are encouraged to make their mark by being motivated, ambitious, resilient and kind.”
To improve
- “On some occasions, pupils do not apply consistent standards of English across subjects.”
- “However, from time to time, staff do not consistently identify some of the errors that pupils make in their written work, including in spelling.”
- “This means that these errors sometimes go unaddressed.”
