From Ofsted report, inspected Oct 2022

Strengths

  • “Hungerford School is a welcoming school.”
  • “Pupils benefit from a much-improved educational offer.”
  • “The curriculum in place is ambitious.”

To improve

  • “A few subjects are not planned and sequenced as precisely as in other subjects.”
  • “This means that in these subjects, pupils do not deepen their knowledge and build on what they know and can do.”
  • “Leaders should ensure that all subjects identify the key knowledge that pupils require, and build on this cumulatively.”
