Strengths
- “The school holds high ambition for its pupils to achieve well.”
- “This includes those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
- “Pupils embody the school value of perseverance.”
To improve
- “That said, in a very small number of subjects, the school has not ensured that teachers have the knowledge they need to be able to deliver the curriculum as intended.”
- “Some of the learning activities that pupils complete do not enable them to learn and remember the important knowledge that is set out in the curriculum.”
- “As a result, in these subjects, pupils do not build up a deep body of knowledge.”
