Strengths
- “Beckfoot Nessfield is a school, which deliberately places personal development on a par with academic achievement.”
- “Leaders are clear that one, without the other, does not support pupils to be successful in the next stage of their lives.”
- “These attributes run throughout the school.”
To improve
- “Older pupils, however, have studied a mix of the previous programme and the new one.”
- “Many older pupils have gaps in their existing mathematical knowledge.”
- “However, this limits the amount of time to spend practising new learning, which leads to new gaps.”
