Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to be part of this welcoming and inclusive school community.”
- “They are greeted warmly each morning by staff who know them well and genuinely care about their wellbeing.”
- “This consistent care helps pupils to feel safe and valued and to thrive.”
To improve
- “However, too few pupils reach the higher standard in mathematics because teachers do not consistently deepen pupils’ learning once they have secured key concepts.”
- “However, teachers do not consistently plan learning activities that are closely matched to the intended curriculum outcomes.”
- “As a result, some pupils do not have sufficient opportunities to practise, revisit or apply their skills and knowledge to tackle complex tasks.”
