Strengths

“The school’s motto of ‘learning together, growing together’ is evident in the day-to-day operation of the school.”
“Pupils work hard and enjoy each other’s company.”
“As one pupil told an inspector: ‘We get on well.”

To improve

“However, in a small number of cases, it does not identify the most important content that pupils are expected to commit to their long-term memory.”
“As a result, there are some inconsistencies in which parts of the curriculum pupils can recall.”
“However, in a small number of cases, teachers do not set work that caters for the full range of abilities in their class.”
