Areas for Improvement

- Marking is inconsistent and teachers do not always check that their feedback has been acted upon
- Teaching assistants do not consistently support pupils throughout lessons or focus on specific skills
- Leadership roles and responsibilities are not clearly defined, and the governing body lacks independent knowledge of school performance
