Strengths

- “The warm and respectful relationships between pupils and staff are very clear to see.”
- “Pupils also treat each other with kindness and consideration.”
To improve
- “However, at times, pupils do not have the knowledge that they need to complete the work they have been asked to do.”
- “Teachers do not always check what pupils have understood.”
- “This means that pupils do not always produce the quality of work that matches the school’s ambitions for them.”
