Strengths
- “Pupils flourish at this highly inclusive school.”
- “From Nursery Year onwards, pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), develop a clear sense of belonging.”
- “They attend well and understand how the school’s values help them to face and overcome challenges, make the right choices and work together.”
To improve
- “However, a minority of pupils do not build a deep enough knowledge to secure higher outcomes in national curriculum tests.”
- “Leaders are addressing this, but this work is in its early stages.”
- “However, some staff do not consistently identify some of the errors that pupils make, for example, in their written work.”
