Strengths
- “A range of curriculum pathways support pupils’ special educational needs and/or disabilities well, including in ‘The Space’.”
- “There are bespoke learning environments to suit each learning pathway.”
- “Strong routines start in early years and continue throughout the school.”
To improve
- “However, there are occasions when subject-based teaching does not build on a precise understanding of what pupils already know and what they need to learn next.”
- “When this happens, teaching does not address pupils’ misconceptions as soon as they appear, or a minority of pupils are not moved on in their learning when they are ready.”
- “However, where curriculum pathways are still becoming firmly established, including in the early years, or there have been changes to school policies, some checks on the impact of the school’s work that the trust expects to be in place are still developing.”
