Success of the Curriculum: Pupils are enthusiastic about their school and achievements in writing are celebrated, particularly in literacy work as well as other curriculum areas.
Areas Needing Improvement: Teachers need to target work, particularly in mathematics, so it matches pupils' individual needs allowing them to reach the highest standards possible.
Support for Falling Behind: Effective and timely interventions help pupils apply what they have learned, but more specific targeting in mathematics is needed.
Behaviour and Attitudes: A high standard of pupils鈥� behaviour is maintained, and pupils are motivated and enthusiastic about their learning.
Performance in Maths & Reading: Proportion of pupils reaching higher standards in writing has been lower than in mathematics and reading. Writing is now a focus for improvement.
