What the school should improve
- In some subjects, the school does not ensure that tasks are sufficiently well matched to pupils' prior knowledge. This means that they are not ready to complete more complex tasks. The school should work with staff so that pupils have the prior learning to complete new tasks and deepen their understanding.
- There is variation in how well the school teaches writing. The teaching of writing skills for younger pupils does not support their development in this area well enough. The school needs to further improve the teaching of early writing so that pupils can write well.
