Areas for Improvement
- Teaching quality is too variable - ranges from outstanding to requiring improvement

- Year 2 attainment in writing and mathematics has dropped and is now below average
- Not enough pupils are challenged to reach higher levels in their work
- Mathematics teaching and marking need to improve to match the quality in English
