Strengths
- “Hateley Heath is a welcoming school where pupils feel included.”
- “Pupils are proud to belong to this kind and thoughtful school community.”
- “They have positive relationships with staff, who know them well.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects, assessment is not used consistently well.”
- “Where this is the case, misconceptions are not always picked up, and this means that future learning is not as well matched to pupils’ needs as it could be.”
- “Historically, pupils’ outcomes in national tests have been below the expected standards.”
