Strengths
- “The dedication shown by all at St Patrick’s to improve this school has ensured that pupils now receive a high-quality education.”
- “All members of the community are united in their belief that this is a ‘great school to attend’ and feel lucky to be part of this ‘family’.”
- “Pupils are safe and happy because of the kind and caring relationships they form with each other and adults.”
To improve
- “However, not all staff are consistently checking pupils’ understanding as learning takes place or responding to misconceptions as they arise, meaning some pupils continue to make the same mistakes at a later point.”
- “The school have identified that more work is needed to develop how fluently the weakest readers can read, knowing that this will support their ability to understand what they have read.”
- “Support plans are in place to remove barriers to learning, however, not all pupils have plans that identify precisely enough what is needed to help them to be successful in their learning.”
