Good Inspected 21 November 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils are happy at, and enjoy attending, this school.”
- “They are polite and welcoming, both to visitors and to new pupils.”
- “They have lots of fun, enjoying making up their own games in the playground and exploring the ‘wild woods’ area.”
To improve
- “However, the school has correctly identified that pupils’ writing skills are not quite as well developed as those in reading and mathematics.”
- “Some pupils have not learned strong letter formation and/or a comprehensive understanding of punctuation and grammar.”
- “A greater emphasis on teaching the skills of writing is in place, but it is too early to see if it is making a difference.”
