Strengths
- “From ‘Excellent Entering’ at the start of the day to ‘Excellent Exiting’ at the end, pupils are surrounded by smiles.”
- “The other factors ensure that pupils make eye contact and say, ‘Please’, ’Thank you’, and ‘Excuse me’.”
- “Pupils move around school exactly like that.”
To improve
- “However, they do not use the same strategies consistently across the whole curriculum.”
- “For example, in geography lessons, teachers do not follow the school’s, ‘I do, We do, You do’ approach consistently.”
- “Therefore, teachers do not ensure that pupils understand how to complete the task routinely.”
