Strengths

“This is a school with a family feel.”
“Staff know the pupils really well.”
“There is a strong sense of pastoral care, which parents and carers value immensely.”

To improve

“However, in some areas of learning, the school has not mapped out the knowledge, skills and vocabulary that children will learn in the early years.”
“However, in a small number of subjects, the school has not considered how the curriculum in Year 1 builds on what pupils have learned previously in the early years.”
“However, teachers are not routinely making checks on pupils’ learning to identify any misconceptions.”

Safeguarding: Effective
