What the school should improve
- In some foundation subjects, teachers do not choose the most effective activities when delivering the curriculum. This means that, in these subjects, pupils do not remember the key knowledge as well as they do in other subjects. Leaders should help teachers to choose the most effective pedagogical methods for implementing the intended curriculum so that, in these subjects, pupils achieve as well as in others.
