From Ofsted report, inspected Nov 2021

Strengths

  • “Pupils enjoy coming to this school.”
  • “They know that their teachers want them to be happy and to do well.”
  • “Parents and carers praised the school’s friendly atmosphere.”

To improve

  • “All subjects are planned to match the expectations of the national curriculum.”
  • “In a few subjects, however, planning provides too little information on the specific knowledge that pupils need to learn.”
  • “As a result, teaching does not prioritise and ensure pupils remember essential ideas and concepts.”
