Strengths
- “The school's shared values are lived and breathed at St Leonard's.”
- “Pupils enjoy school and attend well.”
- “The school motto, 'Dream big, be the best we can be', is embraced by everyone at this Church of England school.”
To improve
- “Leaders continue to refine consistency so that behaviour systems are applied reliably across the school.”
- “However, teachers' explanations, use of resources to aid learning and checks on pupils' understanding are not used consistently.”
- “This means that sometimes pupils do not receive the support they need at the right time.”
