Strengths
- “Pupils at Northfield Road genuinely value being part of the school community.”
- “Each pupil is known, understood and included.”
- “Staff build warm, purposeful relationships that help pupils feel safe.”
To improve
- “The key knowledge that the school wants pupils to know and remember across the wider curriculum is not yet as securely understood by pupils.”
- “This affects how well they progress through a small number of curriculum subjects.”
- “Pupils' regular revisiting of prior learning supports them to recall key facts and apply their knowledge with growing confidence, although this is not yet consistent in subjects across the wider curriculum.”
