Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy coming to this school and are happy to tell visitors why.”
- “When asked, some older pupils found it hard to identify what could be better, agreeing that ‘mostly, this is a great school’.”
- “They also said that they feel that all staff are supportive and that teachers ‘expect a lot’.”
To improve
- “While children in Reception and key stage 1 enjoy their phonics lessons and talk excitedly about the books they are reading or have read, this enthusiasm is lacking in some older pupils.”
- “Some find it hard to discuss or remember what books they have read in the past, either as a class or individually.”
- “While new initiatives are in place to address this, more needs to be done to ensure that a strong culture of reading for pleasure is developed and firmly embedded across the school, particularly in key stage 2.”
