Strengths

- “Staff know pupils and their families well.”
- “They build positive relationships based on trust.”
To improve
- “However, in some subjects, pupils struggle to remember what they have learned in the past.”
- “As a result, they do not develop detailed knowledge and skills across the whole curriculum.”
- “Leaders are aware that attendance needs to continue to improve further and use detailed analysis of absence data to identify patterns and intervene promptly.”
