- “Leaders have high expectations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).”
- “Pupils try hard to ensure that their conduct embodies the school’s values of honesty, friendship and forgiveness.”
To improve
- “However, in a small number of subjects, leaders have not identified the most important knowledge and skills they want pupils to be able to know and do at each stage.”
- “This means that, on occasion, teachers are not sure what curriculum content to teach and in which order.”
- “This occasionally hinders how well some pupils learn in these subjects.”
