'The school has developed a broad, balanced and engaging curriculum. The important knowledge and skills that the school want pupils to know at the end of each unit of learning is clear.'
'Teachers have strong subject knowledge. They use pupils’ curiosity to engage them in their learning. In the Reception Year, children hunted excitedly for patterns hidden in the outdoor area. Teachers ensure that pupils can remember what they have learned. They do this through skilful questioning. Staff constantly check pupils’ learning and provide appropriate support. This effective support helps pupils to listen, concentrate and engage well in their learning in class.'
