Success of the Curriculum: Leaders introduced a new curriculum in September 2022. This curriculum identifies the specific knowledge and skills that pupils need to learn and in what order.

Teaching Staff Challenges: Some subject leaders do not provide enough guidance for teachers to develop their subject knowledge and deliver curriculums well.
