Strengths

“Pupils speak proudly about their school.”
“They are full of praise for the interesting lessons and the care that they receive from staff.”
“Many pupils shared examples of when staff ‘always listen’ and ‘sort things out’ on the rare occasions that help is needed.”

To improve

“However, there are some inconsistencies in how well the curriculum is being delivered across the school.”
“Occasionally, when activities are not precisely matched to pupils’ needs or where teachers’ subject knowledge is less strong, pupils lose focus in lessons.”
“This can affect their behaviour and hinder the pace of learning.”
