Strengths
- “Staff and leaders want the best for all pupils.”
- “Pupils are safe and enjoy coming to school.”
- “Leaders are working hard to ensure that all pupils attend school regularly.”
To improve
- “However, in a very small number of subjects, the delivery of the curriculum does not help pupils to build their knowledge as effectively.”
- “At times, teaching does not focus sufficiently on helping pupils to grasp and remember ideas in depth.”
- “In part, this is because leaders’ curriculum thinking is not fully developed and clear in these subjects.”
