Strengths

To improve
- “In some other subjects, the school is still developing effective methods of checking pupils’ progress through the curriculum.”
- “This means that leaders and teachers do not always know when pupils have not learned parts of the curriculum.”
- “Occasionally, teachers ask questions that pupils do not have the knowledge to answer.”
