'Teachers work extremely well with support staff to plan learning carefully. They plan imaginative and creative lessons, which engage pupils...there is a ‘can do’ culture in the school. All adults have high expectations and are aspirational for pupils. This is consistent across school for different groups of pupils and across all subjects. Teaching is clear and precise. Adults have excellent subject knowledge across a wide range of subjects. They use this knowledge to ask skilful questions, which enable pupils to develop their own thinking.
