Strengths
- “Pupils at Hart Primary School are polite, friendly and welcoming.”
- “Pupils say they feel safe in school.”
- “This is because adults are always available to listen and help.”
To improve

- “As a result, teachers do not know the essential knowledge pupils must remember over time.”
- “This slows the progress that pupils make in these subjects.”
