Strengths
- “Pupils enthusiastically join in with every aspect of school life.”
- “They enjoy attending and say that they feel safe.”
- “Staff are caring and supportive.”
To improve
- “In some subjects within the formal pathway, this detailed planning is new and is only just starting to have an impact in lessons.”
- “However, when staff identify misconceptions or knowledge gaps, they do not always provide further support so that pupils’ understanding is secure before moving on to new topics.”
- “The ‘provision map’ is new and there is some inconsistency in how staff have used this system to assess accurately whether pupils have successfully met their targets.”
