Strengths
- “Pupils arrive at school each morning eager and enthusiastic, ready to embrace the day ahead.”
- “They feel happy and safe, and genuinely enjoy their learning.”
- “Pupils clearly live out the school's values of ‘unity, courage and ambition’ in their everyday behaviours and attitudes.”
To improve
- “Some older pupils lack fluency and accuracy in their writing, and this can hold back their progress.”
- “However, sometimes teachers do not use assessment information to adapt learning effectively.”
- “This means that some pupils complete work that is not ambitious enough.”
