Kapow Primary

Jane Rolfe, Curriculum Leader: The feedback from staff has been very good. SLT are confident that all skills are being taught and are being built on year on year.
D Stanley, Teacher: As before , the expectation/pitch is misguided and results in overly detailed , uninspiring lessons .
Liz Latham, Principal: Content is great - ease of use is great and we feel it's worth the money for our setting
