Strengths
- “Pikemere Primary School is a place where everyone is valued.”
- “Pupils, including children in the early years, love to come to school each day.”
- “Leaders expect pupils to work hard and to achieve well.”
To improve
- “However, a few subject leaders have not had the opportunity to check how well their curriculums are helping pupils to learn.”
- “Assessment strategies are not as well developed in these subjects to enable teachers to check on how well pupils have learned the curriculum.”
- “This means that, on occasions, pupils move on to new learning before they have embedded previously taught concepts securely.”
