Strengths
- “Through the school’s strong support for pupils’ emotional and social development, pupils are helped to build their resilience and confidence.”
- “Leaders are ambitious for all pupils.”
- “Typically, pupils’ learning is not disrupted by the behaviours of others.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes checks to identify what pupils know and remember over time are not carried out as routinely, and as a result some misconceptions and gaps in pupils’ knowledge and recall are not identified and addressed.”
Safeguarding: Effective
