Strengths
- “Staff at Headlands School have high expectations for all pupils.”
- “The values of kindness, respect and resilience are a strong feature of the school.”
- “Pupils help one another inside and outside lessons.”
To improve
- “However, the precise knowledge that pupils will learn in some foundation subjects, such as art and design, is not as clearly identified.”
- “However, in some foundation subjects, leaders have not established the precise knowledge they want to be assessed.”
- “Consequently, assessment is not as effective as it might be at identifying gaps in pupils’ knowledge.”
