Strengths
- “The school is a warm and friendly environment where pupils start each day feeling welcomed and ready to learn.”
- “They quickly establish nurturing relationships with staff and with each other.”
- “They quickly get any help that they need from caring staff.”
To improve
- “However, some of these changes are not yet fully in place in some classes, meaning that in some subjects pupils find it harder to build on their prior learning.”
- “However, on occasion, some teachers do not adapt learning activities as well as they could to support pupils to learn as well as they could.”
- “However, recent refinements to the curriculum in some other subjects are not consistently embedded in all classes to ensure that all pupils can achieve their best.”
