Strengths
- “The school holds high ambition for its pupils to achieve well.”
- “Pupils work hard and make the most of the opportunities that the school provides for them.”
- “Across much of the curriculum, pupils are well prepared for their next stage of education.”
To improve
- “There remains a small number of subjects where the school has not determined the full range of important content that pupils should learn.”
- “This makes it difficult for staff to know what knowledge to prioritise when designing learning.”
- “Consequently, in these subjects, some pupils have gaps in their knowledge and do not achieve as well as they could.”
