Weobley High School

Strengths

• Attendance and behaviour are strengths, with rates above national averages and a respectful culture.
• Pupils with SEND and disadvantaged pupils receive extremely high levels of care and support, and their attendance is consistently improving.
• Pupils are well prepared for their next steps; in 2025 all leavers moved on to appropriate further education, employment or training.
• Leadership provides clear strategic direction for the curriculum and teaching, leading to improvements in teaching quality.
• The curriculum is well sequenced and builds secure foundations from Year 7 onwards.
• Leaders make appropriate use of alternative provision, checking pupils' attendance, safety and progress.
• Personal development is thoughtfully designed, with a wide range of clubs, trips and careers guidance.
• Governors receive appropriate information to support and challenge leaders, and staff workload and wellbeing are well monitored.

Areas for Improvement

• Adaptive teaching and assessment are not consistently embedded across all subjects, meaning some pupils do not receive the precise support and challenge they need.
• Monitoring processes are not equally precise across all aspects of the curriculum, so leaders do not always know accurately how effective their actions have been.
• Governors do not have a sharp-enough understanding of how effectively the curriculum is implemented, relying too much on information from leaders.
• Disadvantaged pupils' progress in 2023/24 and 2022/23 was below the national average for disadvantaged pupils, though attainment improved in 2024/25.
