Key areas for development Leadership and Management
Ensuring that the school’s self-evaluation is much more realistic and accurate. Effectively and precisely planning for improvement in pupils’ outcomes. Ensuring that lines of accountability for pupils’ outcomes are clear among
phase leaders and the leaders of all subjects, and furthermore that these key leadership roles become much better developed and more influential.

different needs of disadvantaged pupils, and that outcomes for these pupils improve considerably and are carefully evaluated.
Carrying out the performance management of staff robustly and effectively. Ensuring that the Nursery and Reception classes have effective oversight. Improving significantly the work and influence of the academy trust. Ensuring that the governing body, and the academy trust, hold the school

including those with particularly high ability in different subjects.
