School remains Good Inspected 20 July 2022
Strengths
- “Weetwood’s reputation for meeting the needs of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is richly deserved.”
- “Parents and carers of pupils with SEND choose to travel from miles away, so their children can attend this school.”
- “Leaders have designed a curriculum that celebrates pupils’ differences.”
To improve
- “For less confident readers, leaders realised that some reading books did not match pupils’ phonics knowledge.”
- “In some subjects, including history and modern foreign languages, leaders are still refining curriculum plans.”
- “Although the long-term plans are thorough, leaders still need to improve the medium-term plans to detail what pupils will learn in each year group.”
