Read what Ofsted said (6)

From Ofsted report, inspected Apr 2023

Strengths

  • “This is a welcoming and nurturing place to learn.”
  • “The atmosphere around the school is very calm.”
  • “This is because there are clear and consistent routines and high expectations from staff.”

To improve

  • “In a few subjects, pupils find it difficult to remember key concepts and vocabulary that they have been taught before.”
  • “This means they find it difficult to link learning to what they have been taught previously, and they develop gaps in their learning.”
  • “Leaders should make sure that teachers help pupils to retain knowledge, skills and vocabulary over time.”
