Strengths
- “Pupils are happy at this small and welcoming school.”
- “Older and younger pupils play together well at breaktimes and at lunch.”
- “They know that if something worries them there is always an adult in school who can help.”
To improve
- “Occasionally, this checking does not include as many pupils as it could.”
- “This means that teachers occasionally move on to new subject content before all pupils are ready.”
- “In lessons, the behaviour of a small number of pupils sometimes does not meet the school’s high expectations.”
