What the school should improve
- In some foundation subjects, leaders have not mapped out the important knowledge that pupils need to learn with enough detail. This means that pupils learn less in some subjects than in others. Leaders should work with teachers to identify the key knowledge that they want pupils to learn across all subjects.
