Strengths
- “Nythe is a happy and caring place to learn.”
- “The school’s motto, ‘Together may our feathers give us wings to soar’, underpins its high ambition for all.”
- “Pupils’ achievement is improving.”
To improve
- “However, the many positive changes to teaching and the curriculum have not had enough time to fully have an impact on some pupils’ learning.”
- “Following leadership and staffing instability, pupils’ behaviour and standards declined.”
- “However, some staff lack the subject expertise needed to teach the curriculum with the rigour the school intends.”
