Strengths
- “Positive relationships, respect and kindness are at the centre of everything the school does.”
- “Pupils develop trusting relationships with staff and benefit from a caring environment.”
- “Staff know the pupils well and understand their needs, talents and interests.”
To improve
- “Many pupils have lost the confidence and resilience to learn.”
- “However, at times, the school’s high expectations of what pupils can achieve are not consistently reflected in pupils’ work.”
- “Teaching does not address accurate use of grammar, sentence construction and transcription, including when pupils write across the curriculum.”
