Strengths
- “The school’s curriculum is designed to help pupils overcome barriers to engagement.”
- “It aims to build their confidence, resilience, and positive learning behaviours.”
- “This involves working with pupils to create various opportunities to achieve and celebrate their personal and academic successes.”
To improve
- “However, staff knowledge of the curriculum in some subjects and how to adapt the work to meet pupils’ needs is underdeveloped.”
- “Consequently, some academic PLP targets lack precision in weaving through the essential concepts identified in the curriculum intent.”
- “Work towards achieving these targets is sometimes done in isolation.”
