Pupils feel safe in school. They are not worried about bullying. The staff are committed to the school and they want the pupils to do well. However, the school is not providing an acceptable standard of education. This is because the school’s curriculum is not as organised as it needs to be. The school does not do enough to check what newly arrived pupils know and can do. This means that pupils often struggle to understand what they have been asked to do. It is often confusing for pupils because teachers do not explain new things very well or they assume that pupils have more understanding than they do. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) do not get the in-class support they should. Pupils’ reading is not as well supported as it needs to be. The pupils who find reading more of a challenge do not get the precise support they need. Older pupils can read what they like, with no-one keeping an eye on the suitability of book choices. In class, there is too much off-task disruption. Pupils think it is all right to keep talking when the teacher is talking. This gets in the way of pupils’ learning.
