Strengths
- “A comment made by one parent is shared by many others: ‘Children are welcomed by adults who genuinely care.”
- “Respect is one of the school’s core values.”
- “Staff and pupils exemplify this core value through their actions.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes teachers do not set work that builds well enough on what pupils already know and can do.”
- “This means that, on occasion, pupils finish their work early or find the work too easy.”
