You enjoy coming to school and make the most of it. The school provides you with a satisfactory education. You make satisfactory progress and leave at the end of Year 6 with standards that are average. We were pleased to see how you enjoy your reading and how much you have improved. This is because teaching is satisfactory. You told us you enjoy your lessons and feel safe in school, but you were concerned that at times other pupils do not always behave as well as they could and so on occasions interrupt your learning.
