Strengths
- “They love to debate, challenge and discuss ideas when in class.”
- “Classrooms are calm and purposeful.”
- “Pupils are safe and happy and enjoy coming to school.”
To improve
- “Children in early years receive care and nurture, but the curriculum is not as strong as it could be.”
- “Leaders have not prioritised the curriculum in early years to ensure that children get off to the flying start they need.”
- “However, leaders are aware that with new staff and a high number of less experienced teachers, there is still work to do so that staff know exactly what to teach and when.”
