What the school should improve
- The school is still refining its assessment strategies in some newer subject curriculums. This means that subject leaders do not have the information that they need to analyse and evaluate the effectiveness of some curriculum areas. The school should ensure that subject leaders gather and use assessment information to make any necessary improvements to the curriculum.
