What the school should improve

  • Occasionally, the curriculum in some subjects is not implemented as well as leaders intend. Some learning activities do not match the aims of the curriculum well enough. This means that pupils do not learn as well as they could. The school should ensure that the curriculum is taught as intended so that pupils build their knowledge effectively and achieve the best possible outcomes.
