Strengths
- “It is a golden thread that runs throughout the school.”
- “Pupils demonstrate this in their daily interactions with each other and with staff.”
- “As soon as children join the Nursery, they form positive relationships with staff.”
To improve
- “However, some pupils struggle to remember what they have learned over longer periods of time and have gaps in their knowledge.”
- “Teachers do not systematically check that pupils remember what they have learned previously.”
- “On some occasions, the activities that some teachers select do not enable pupils to learn the important knowledge identified in the curriculum.”
