What the school should improve
- In some foundation subjects, the school does not yet have systems in place to check pupils' understanding. As a result, staff do not always have the information they need to address gaps in pupils' learning. The school should ensure that the assessment systems currently being developed enable staff to identify and address gaps in pupils' understanding.
