Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy being part of a positive and inclusive school community.”
- “The school has high expectations of all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
- “Pupils are passionate about learning and respond well to leaders’ ambitions.”
To improve
- “In a small number of subjects, the school has not identified and sequenced the precise knowledge for pupils to learn.”
- “This means that staff do not emphasise the most important content, and checks of pupils’ understanding are less accurate.”
- “This slows pupils’ learning in a few subjects.”
