School Description

Leaders work with integrity, putting pupils at the heart of their decisions. Their vision of ‘dream, achieve, believe’ is realised in the determined way that the school has set about continuing to improve the quality of education over the past few years. The school is crystal clear about what it wants pupils to learn. Staff want to ensure that while at Ravenswood, pupils learn the life skills they need to live safely and to be as independent as they can. Staff go above and beyond to ensure that pupils encounter a wide, rich set of experiences. Outside learning, such as in the wildlife area, the go-karting track and a variety of sports, trips and residentials help pupils to learn how to live interesting, active and healthy lives. Pupils know that staff will listen to and support any concerns about bullying incidents that occur. Leaders seek every opportunity to enhance learning. Older pupils help to run an on-site kitchen and a pop-up shop. A real-life bus stop helps pupils learn how to travel safely. Pupils experience real world environments through assisted technology in the ‘discovery room.’ These all help to empower pupils to feel more confident to face life beyond Ravenswood.
