Hall Green Infant School continues to perform well, maintaining its good status from the previous inspection in November 2017. The school fosters a supportive community where pupils grow as confident learners, with high expectations set for behavior and academic achievement. Leaders emphasize the importance of attendance and ensure that pupils feel safe and respected. However, there are challenges in ensuring that all pupils fully retain the knowledge from previous lessons, which can hinder their understanding of new material. Additionally, there are some concerns regarding the support provided for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
