Strengths
- “Pupils at this school feel safe and well cared for.”
- “Each morning, staff warmly welcome pupils.”
- “This helps to foster a secure sense of belonging.”
To improve
- “However, these outcomes do not fully reflect the frequency of mistakes and misconceptions in pupils’ work across the school in different subjects.”
- “Sometimes, gaps in pupils' learning are not addressed so pupils do not build their knowledge effectively.”
- “However, where assessment and the quality of teaching is not sufficiently precise, this hinders the progress pupils with SEND make through the curriculum.”
