What the school should improve
- In some curriculum subjects, pupils do not have enough opportunities to revisit their previous knowledge and remember it over time. This makes it difficult for some pupils to build their knowledge well in these subjects. The trust needs to ensure the curriculum supports pupils to recap and remember previous learning.
