Strengths
- “This is a welcoming community where pupils feel safe and happy.”
- “Each morning, staff warmly welcome pupils into school.”
- “Staff are ambitious for all pupils, including disadvantaged pupils and pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities.”
To improve
- “However, variability in the way staff deliver some aspects of the curriculum remains.”
- “Consequently, pupils, in particular disadvantaged pupils, do not achieve as well as they should compared to their peers nationally.”
- “However, staff do not consistently maximise the opportunities for engaging children in high-quality interactions throughout the day, for example deepening children's understanding of key vocabulary.”
