What the school should improve
- Sometimes adults do not use the most effective methods to ensure all pupils learn as well as they should. This includes for a small number of pupils who find reading difficult. As a result, a minority of pupils are making slower progress through the curriculum and not doing as well as they should. Leaders should ensure that all adults know how to support all pupils to learn well in every subject.
