“The school ensures that pupils, many of whom are disadvantaged, are ready to learn each day.”

To improve

“However, in some wider curriculum subjects, checks on what pupils have learned are not as effective.”
“As a result, pupils have gaps in their knowledge and misconceptions persist.”
“This hinders the progress that some pupils make in these subjects.”
