Strengths
- “Robert Le Kyng Primary is a well-led, diverse school where every pupil can thrive and belong.”
- “The school provides a highly inclusive and positive environment.”
- “Pupils are seen for what they can do, rather than what they cannot.”
To improve
- “However, there are times when pupils are not as confident when linking new learning to what they have learned over time.”
- “Therefore, the school’s intention for pupils to learn and deepen their understanding of some key concepts is not being realised as well as it could.”
