Strengths
- “The school’s vision to ‘inspire, nurture, enable’ is lived out daily by pupils throughout all aspects of their learning.”
- “There is a warm and welcoming environment where pupils keenly greet visitors and share their positive experiences of the education provided.”
- “In lessons and around the school, pupils behave well.”
To improve
- “In some subjects, however, the changes to the curriculum are still new.”
- “This means pupils have gaps in knowledge which are not always identified as quickly as they need to be.”
- “The achievement of some pupils at the end of key stage 1 reflects the need for the changes that are now being put in place.”
