Success of the Curriculum: Teachers often catch what pupils misunderstand in lessons and provide effective support.
Areas Needing Improvement: Teachers do not check well enough what pupils remember over time and do not provide sufficient practice opportunities.
Support for Falling Behind: Staff in Years 1 and 2 deliver effective extra support for pupils who have fallen behind in reading.
