Strengths
- “Teachers encourage and expect them to do their best.”
- “If pupils do not understand something at first, teachers give them tips to help them work things out.”
- “Pupils behave extremely well around the school and in lessons.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, the curriculum does not set out clearly enough what pupils should know by the end of a unit of work.”
- “Key questions are sometimes too broad.”
- “As a result, pupils are not always able to recall and explain what they have learned.”
