Whitehall Infant School is performing well overall, maintaining the high standards established in its previous inspection. The school offers a warm and caring environment where strong relationships between staff, pupils, and parents foster a positive learning atmosphere. The leadership is committed to ensuring that all pupils, including those with special educational needs and English as an additional language, achieve their potential through a broad and engaging curriculum. However, there is a need for improvement in how early handwriting skills are taught, particularly in correcting pencil grip and letter formation.
