Strengths
- “Pupils are happy and enjoy learning.”
- “The school does a great job in giving pupils experiences that they would not otherwise have.”
- “Pupils go on a lot of trips and have access to a wide range of extra-curricular clubs and activities.”
To improve
- “However, there is some inconsistency in teaching approaches, including the use of resources to help pupils understand new concepts.”
- “Pupils are taught one way of using resources, for example number lines, to help them in one year group, but do not necessarily use a similar enough approach in another.”
- “However, the support for pupils who are at a very early stage of language development is not as effective as it could be.”
