Strengths

- “The school motto of ‘It is fun to learn and grow together’ is realised in this friendly and nurturing school.”
- “Parents and carers, pupils and staff spoke warmly of the school’s family feel.”
To improve

- “When this happens, it can be confusing for pupils, particularly weaker readers.”
- “This is because pupils are unable to use their developing phonics knowledge to read the book accurately.”
