What the school should improve

  • The books that some pupils are given to practise reading are too challenging. They do not match the sounds that pupils know. This prevents some pupils, especially those who need extra support, from reading with fluency and practising what they know. The school must ensure that the books pupils use are carefully matched to the phonics sounds that pupils know so they can practise their reading effectively.
  • In some lessons, activities are not sufficiently adapted to match the ability of all pupils. This means that some pupils do not develop the depth of knowledge that they could. The school must ensure that staff have the skills and understanding to be able to make effective adaptations to ensure lessons are ambitious for all pupils.
