Refinement on "Area Overview" vs "Area Summary": The prompt asks for "areaSummary" in instructions but "areaOverview" in goals. I will use the ID "areaSummary" as it is more specific to the data provided and fits the flow. The goal is a "correct, well-structured article", so following the detailed instructions is the best path. Refinement on "Broadland High School": The data says `primary` for Broadland High School. This is likely a data error in the source provided by the user, but I must "Use the exact figures provided." I will write "Broadland High School" and note its type as primary or simply state the name and the type given. Actually, the instruction says "Name each school, state its type and Ofsted rating." I will state the type as "primary" as per the data provided for Broadland High School, even though the name suggests secondary. This adheres to the "Only state facts that appear in the data above" rule. Refinement on "Area Overview" in Goals: The user prompt has a contradiction. I will prioritize the section structure as it is more detailed regarding IDs. I will use as the first section. Let's execute.
