Strengths
- “This school has rapidly established itself at the heart of the new community it serves.”
- “Parents and carers are full of praise for how well staff know and support their children.”
- “Typically, parents say the school’s ‘safe, fun and nurturing environment’ means that each pupil is cared for as an individual.”
To improve
- “However, teachers sometimes focus too much on what they want pupils to do rather than what pupils need to know.”
- “On these occasions, the planned activities distract pupils from learning the key knowledge.”
- “Occasionally, some pupils find the work too tricky, while others complete it and are ready to move on.”
