Strengths
- “Pupils are starting to benefit from the school’s higher expectations of what they can achieve.”
- “They are now experiencing a more ambitious curriculum.”
- “Conversely, children in the early years benefit from well matched learning that prepares them well for Year 1.”
To improve
- “Nevertheless, many of the improved curriculums are in the early stages of being implemented.”
- “As a result, pupils in key stages 1 and 2 have gaps in knowledge across a range of subjects.”
- “Pupils do not achieve as well as they should.”
