Strengths
- “Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those in the specially resourced provision for pupils with SEND (specially resourced provision), thrive at this warm and welcoming school.”
- “Staff work tirelessly to make sure that pupils feel safe, happy and well cared for.”
- “Leaders deal with any incidents of unkind behaviour or bullying swiftly and effectively.”
To improve
- “However, during some lessons, teachers do not routinely check that pupils can read texts with accuracy and understanding before they move on to more challenging comprehension activities.”
- “However, some of these pupils do not receive effective enough support because they miss too much school.”
- “However, some pupils do not attend school regularly and miss important learning.”
