Estyn report

In many lessons, nearly all pupils recall prior learning effectively and build on this to make further progress and deepen their understanding. They use subject terminology confidently and make valuable progress in their subject knowledge and skills. In a few lessons, where pupils make exceptional progress, they apply newly gained knowledge and skills creatively. Many pupils listen attentively in lessons and are confident when speaking in class.”
