Strengths
- “Pupils, staff and parents and/or carers acknowledge the significant improvements that leaders have recently introduced.”
- “One parent, reflecting the views of many, said: ‘We love this school, including the teachers, the engagement from the leadership team with everyone, and the positive effect this school has on our children.”
- “Leaders include them all in making this a community where pupils thrive.”
To improve
- “Curriculum thinking in other subjects is not as well developed, and teaching is less securely focused on helping pupils to learn key concepts and remember and refine their knowledge over time, including in early years.”
- “As a result, sometimes, pupils struggle to recall their prior learning.”
