Strengths

- “They take pride in their work, appreciate the support from their teachers and achieve well.”
To improve
- “However, this work is not yet fully developed across the whole curriculum, so some pupils do not understand these broader subject concepts well.”
- “A few parents would like to see more clubs on offer.”
- “However, a few feel that communication could be improved and that concerns raised could be addressed more quickly by leaders.”
