Moulton School continues to be a good school where pupils feel safe, valued, and supported by caring staff. Pupils demonstrate kindness and respect towards one another and have positive relationships with teachers. The school provides a well-designed and ambitious curriculum that allows pupils to build on their prior knowledge, especially from the early years. Reading is prioritized, and there is a strong emphasis on phonics, helping pupils to successfully improve their reading skills. However, there are some concerns regarding the adaptation of the curriculum for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and a small number of pupils who experience persistent absence, impacting their learning opportunities.
