Strengths
- “Pupils arrive each morning to a warm welcome and calm routines that help them settle quickly.”
- “They start the day by sharing how they are feeling on ‘check-in pegs’, which allows staff to spot any worries early and support pupils so they are ready to learn.”
- “This contributes to the safe and nurturing atmosphere that motivates pupils to attend school regularly.”
To improve
- “Leaders are working to improve pupils’ writing.”
- “This is making a difference, although the accuracy and quality of writing still vary for some pupils.”
- “Occasionally, however, teaching does not consistently help pupils to apply their understanding as well as it could.”
