Strengths

- “Pupils are friendly and courteous.”
- “They are interested in each other and celebrate the diversity within their school and community.”
To improve
- “As a result of the school’s hard work, 2024 published outcomes in writing and mathematics rose to be broadly in line with national averages, 2024 outcomes in phonics and reading were not as strong.”
- “While staff make sure that these pupils are typically well supported to manage their social and emotional well-being, sometimes, the curriculum is not well enough designed to ensure that pupils make the gains in learning that they should.”
