What the school should improve
- There is variation in how well the curriculum is being adapted to meet the different needs and starting points of pupils. This means that some pupils do not receive the support they need to make sufficient progress towards the intended end points. The school should ensure that all staff have the skills and knowledge to adjust the curriculum effectively.
- Systems designed to check the effectiveness of some areas of the curriculum are in the early stages of implementation. This means that the school does not yet have a clear picture of how well pupils are learning in some subjects. The trust should ensure that leaders at all levels are enabled to gain a clear understanding of strengths and areas for improvement in the curriculum.
