They feel that the school caters well for the individual needs of pupils. All groups of pupils learn well and make good progress from their starting points. By the end of... Year 6, results are broadly average, or above, in all subjects.
Teaching is consistently good or better across the curriculum with teachers planning learning that engages and holds pupils' interest. Pupils are a credit to their school. Their behaviour is good and they are polite, confident and articulate individuals.
