Strengths
- “Upwood Primary Academy pupils are polite and friendly.”
- “There are positive and respectful relationships between pupils and adults.”
- “Pupils are expected to work hard and follow the school rules, and they do.”
To improve
- “However, in a few subjects the systems are less developed, and as a result leaders do not know how effectively pupils are learning the planned curriculum content.”
- “However, some teachers do not have secure subject knowledge in all curriculum areas that they need to ensure they do this consistently well.”
- “This means they lack confidence to adapt their teaching to support pupils to learn effectively.”
