- Sometimes, teachers do not check consistently well what pupils know and remember. This leads to inconsistencies in pupils' subject-specific knowledge and understanding. Leaders should ensure that all teachers address any misconceptions in pupils' knowledge and understanding so that they are fully ready for new content.
