What the school should improve
- In Reception, the school has not ensured that the individual needs, interests, and development areas of each child is considered in sufficient detail including in the outside environment. As a result, children's needs are not being fully met. The school must ensure that adults consistently plan a challenging and enjoyable experience for each child. This must take account of children's varying starting points in all areas of their learning and development.
- Where there is newer subject leadership in place, they have not had the opportunity to carry out checks on how well pupils are achieving. The school need to ensure they continue to support new leaders to make sure they carry out the checks they need to so they know how well pupils achieve in the area of the curriculum they lead.
