Strengths

• “Pupils love attending Holne Chase Primary.”
• “The school’s bright and welcoming environment is carefully considered to capture pupils’ interests.”
• “A deep moral purpose underpins all that happens at this school.”

To improve

• “However, this work is not as effective as it could be.”
• “Assessment across the foundation curriculum is not always used well to identify gaps in pupils’ prior knowledge.”
• “As a result, teachers do not always provide enough opportunities to recall all prior learning, leading to some gaps in pupils’ prior understanding not being identified and addressed.”
