Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy coming to school.”
- “They are taught to be ‘ready, respectful and safe’.”
- “They know what bullying is and that it happens very rarely at their school.”
To improve
- “However, the early years curriculum is not so well planned out.”
- “This means that in some subjects the curriculum does not build from Nursery to make sure that pupils are consistently well prepared for all aspects of learning in Year 1.”
- “These checks are not always effective in identifying whether pupils have remembered the important knowledge that leaders intended.”
