Strengths
- “Pupils are proud to attend this small setting.”
- “Staff know pupils well and are always on hand to help them improve their work.”
- “Pupils particularly enjoy studying technical courses in subjects such as engineering and media studies.”
To improve
- “These expectations are more fully realised in the results of vocational subjects than in academic subjects.”
- “However, subject leadership and staffing are not embedded and fully implemented in a few subjects.”
- “And means that the school does not have a secure understanding of where there are gaps in pupils’ knowledge and skills in these subjects.”
