Strengths
- “Pupils enjoy attending School 21.”
- “Through its broad, balanced and innovative curriculum, the school seeks to ‘empower young people to make a difference’.”
- “This starts in the early years, where children learn key knowledge and skills for Year 1.”
To improve
- “The school’s curriculum is not implemented consistently well across all phases and subjects.”
- “This means that sometimes pupils struggle to recall the key knowledge they have learned previously.”
- “This includes students in the sixth form, where published outcomes are currently not as high as they are for younger pupils.”
