  • “Staff and leaders want the best for all pupils.”
  • “Pupils are safe and enjoy coming to school.”
  • “Leaders are working hard to ensure that all pupils attend school regularly.”

To improve

  • “This results in inconsistencies in how these subjects are implemented by teachers.”
  • “In these subjects, teaching does not enable pupils to learn subject content in as much depth as they could.”
