School remains Good Inspected 18 October 2023
Strengths
- “This caring school has high aspirations for all its pupils.”
- “Pupils know that staff value them and expect them to do well.”
- “This helps them to be positive and feel happy.”
To improve
- “The school provides guidance to staff on effective teaching strategies for different topics in most, but not all, subjects.”
- “However, some older pupils struggle with applying their mathematical knowledge when reasoning, and in unfamiliar contexts, despite having a good grasp of multiplication tables.”
- “However, teachers do not always check during topics that pupils have secured the basic knowledge they need before they move on to new work.”
