Strengths
- “Great Oldbury Primary Academy is welcoming and friendly.”
- “There is a positive and vibrant ethos that permeates through the school.”
- “The school’s vision, ‘dream, believe, achieve’, clearly encapsulates its ambition to achieve the best outcomes for all pupils.”
To improve
- “These changes are in their early stages and are not yet fully embedded.”
- “It is not yet used with precision to check what pupils know and remember in the long term.”
- “As a result, pupils’ recall and understanding of prior learning in the wider curriculum are less secure.”
