Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy learning at Highters Heath Community School.”
- “They love their school and understand why it is important to attend regularly.”
- “Children get off to a great start in the early years, where they work well together and cooperate happily to learn new things.”
To improve
- “However, pupils' outcomes in national tests for the higher standard are significantly lower.”
- “However, these checks are not consistently used well to identify when pupils who have mastered a skill are ready to move on.”
- “This means, on occasion, that these pupils are not provided with activities that deepen their learning.”
