Strengths
- “Pupils are enthusiastic about their learning.”
- “They appreciate how their teachers help them, such as the modelling of new words and sharing new ways to solve problems in mathematics.”
- “As a result, pupils proudly showcase their work.”
To improve
- “However, the curriculum is less developed in subjects where the leaders have made very recent changes.”
- “In these subject areas, pupils do not have enough opportunities to build up a deep understanding of the knowledge they are learning.”
- “However, teacher assessment in some subjects does not help teachers to identify what pupils know and whether pupils are ready to move on in their learning.”
