What the school should improve
- In some subjects, leaders' systems to assess pupils' learning are under- developed. This means that, on occasion, teachers do not have a secure enough understanding of whether pupils have learned all the essential subject knowledge and concepts that they should. Leaders should finalise their systems to check how well pupils are learning new knowledge.
- A minority of younger pupils do not have enough time for reading practice to ensure that they read fluently and accurately. A lack of fluency sometimes hinders their understanding of what they have read. Leaders should ensure that they provide more opportunities for those pupils who find reading more difficult to improve their fluency.
