Strengths
- “Pupils at this proudly diverse, inner-city school are happy.”
- “They have warm relationships with each other and with staff, who make sure they feel safe and cared for.”
- “Pupils benefit from the school's close attention to their individual needs.”
To improve
- “Where pupils who speak English as an additional language have recently joined the school, their outcomes are typically lower than their peers.”
- “Newly arrived pupils, including those who speak English as an additional language, achieve outcomes in national tests that are typically lower than average, for example in phonics.”
- “This is because these pupils have not had enough time to benefit from the school’s curriculum.”
