Strengths

“Wellesbourne is a friendly, caring school where everyone is welcomed into the school community.”
“Pupils demonstrate the school values of service, kindness and resilience in the way they conduct themselves and interact with each other.”
“There is a culture of more than respect; it is one of genuinely caring for each other.”

To improve

“However, in a few subjects, some of the end-of-unit assessments that pupils complete do not assess their learning of key knowledge effectively.”
“Sometimes the assessment tasks set do not enable pupils to apply their learning in enough depth.”
“There is a well-sequenced reading curriculum, but there is some variation in how well this is implemented.”

Safeguarding: Effective
