Strengths
- “This is a school where its vision is realised and pupils are proud to belong.”
- “Pupils enjoy coming to school and are happy and safe.”
- “Staff have strong relationships with pupils, and pupils trust staff to help them in their work and with their concerns.”
To improve
- “However, sometimes, pupils’ recall of earlier knowledge is not secure.”
- “This is because in some foundation subjects, teachers’ checks on what pupils have learned are not effective.”
- “Outside of lessons, sometimes, staff do not have the same high expectations of pupils’ behaviour.”
