St Michael's School Development Plan 2025/26
OFSTED inspection 17th and 18th June 2025 - St Michael’s CofE Primary School, Sunninghill has taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection. What does the school need to do to improve?
- The teaching and tasks set do not always challenge pupils effectively, for some it is too easy while for others it is too hard. This means that, in some subjects, pupils could achieve more. The school should ensure that teachers have the expertise to set appropriately challenging tasks so that all pupils learn as well as they should.
- The strategies for school improvement are not defined precisely or quickly enough. Consequently, governors do not always have the information they need to effectively hold leaders to account for driving further school improvement. The school should ensure that processes and procedures for school improvement are systematically implemented so all leaders have an accurate oversight of the school’s strengths and areas for further development.
