Strengths
- “This is a welcoming and inclusive school.”
- “Leaders and staff hold pupils at the centre of everything they do.”
- “Leaders have built a curriculum where difference is understood.”
To improve
- “However, leaders recognise that a small number of subjects are at an earlier stage of development.”
- “Older pupils who experienced disruption to their learning during the COVID-19 pandemic have had less time to benefit from the improvements that leaders have made.”
- “This means that some pupils are less able to connect and apply learning over the longer term.”
