School remains Good Inspected 14 June 2023
Strengths
- “Pupils live and breathe ‘The Sarratt Way’.”
- “Regular reminders guide pupils to demonstrate the three school values: creativity, courage and compassion.”
- “Pupils typically meet adults’ high expectations.”
To improve
- “Still, there are a few issues in how staff teach reading, which hinders support for the few weaker readers.”
- “For example, insisting these pupils learn sounds that go far beyond their assessed stage.”
- “This then limits the opportunity for weaker readers to secure the sounds they need to know to confidently read the books they receive.”
