Strengths
- “Pupils arrive to a warm, calm welcome and settle quickly into purposeful routines.”
- “In early years, children move straight into well-planned activities that build language and fine motor skills, helping them feel secure and ready to learn.”
- “Across the school, pupils feel safe and know that adults will listen and help.”
To improve
- “Teaching is strengthening, although the highest levels of precision are not yet consistent across all classes.”
- “Sometimes, pupils are asked to work independently before they are fully confident with the basics.”
- “In some areas, although inclusion is effective, the best practice is not yet consistent across all adults.”
