Strengths

- “This enables all pupils to feel like they belong.”
- “As one pupil commented, ‘Everyone is welcome here.’”
To improve
- “In most, but not all, subjects, it is well sequenced and contains the precise knowledge and skills that pupils will learn and remember.”
- “However, this is not consistent across the whole curriculum.”
- “This means that sometimes pupils do not learn and remember the key knowledge over time.”
