Strengths
- “Pupils flourish in the caring environment of this happy school.”
- “They thoroughly enjoy learning and they value their education.”
- “They work with tenacity and resilience to meet the ambitious goals that the school sets for their achievement.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, the assessment methods that staff use to check what pupils know and remember over time are not as well established.”
- “On occasion, this prevents teachers from successfully building on pupils’ learning and identifying any gaps that pupils have in their knowledge.”
- “However, a small number of pupils who struggle with their reading are not supported as well as they should be in the application of their phonics knowledge.”
