Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to attend Runnymede St Edward’s.”
- “They are safe in school and they feel privileged to be part of a warm and welcoming community.”
- “They recognise that learning all that they can is important for their future lives.”
To improve
- “However, in one or two subjects, leaders do not check with sufficient rigour that teachers are covering all the important knowledge that pupils must learn.”
- “This prevents these leaders from knowing that pupils are achieving as well as they should.”
- “However, in a minority of subjects, leaders’ assessment strategies do not provide teachers with sufficient information about what pupils have learned and remembered.”
