Strengths
- “Kindness and community cohesion sit at the heart of the school’s work.”
- “Pupils and their families feel included, regardless of circumstance.”
- “As a result, pupils and parents and carers are happy.”
To improve
- “However, for a small number of younger pupils with more significant gaps in early reading, writing or mathematics, errors and misconceptions are not routinely addressed quickly enough.”
- “As a result, these pupils are not supported to catch up as swiftly as they could.”
