What the school should improve
- In a few curriculum subjects, leaders have not set out precisely the key skills and knowledge that they want pupils to learn and remember. This means that teachers do not teach key content so pupils do not always learn and retain what leaders expect. Leaders must ensure that they set out clearly what are the most important aspects of the curriculum that they want pupils to learn and remember.
- Some older pupils do not have books that are well matched to their reading stage. This means that some pupils are not as fluent with their reading as they could be. Leaders must ensure that pupils who have completed the phonics programme have books that are better matched to their stage of reading.
