Strengths
- “Pupils are happy and are safe.”
- “They come to school with positive attitudes, excited to learn.”
- “Any incidents that occur are dealt with promptly.”
To improve
- “They know their subjects well, although their ability to offer professional support and training to class teachers is still developing.”
- “Nevertheless, there are some inconsistencies in how teachers deliver the curriculum and, as a result, some activities are not used to maximum effect to ensure pupils develop a deep understanding of what they need to know.”
- “However, a small number of pupils have not had their needs fully identified early enough.”
