What the school should improve
- In a small number of foundation subjects, the school has not selected the key knowledge or vocabulary that it wants pupils to learn. As a result, the curriculum in these subjects is less rigorous and ambitious and pupils' learning is more superficial. The school should review the curriculum in these subjects and decide on the key knowledge that all pupils must learn so that they can deepen their knowledge and understanding.
