Pupils have a strong sense of belonging at this warm and inclusive school. They benefit from a culture that celebrates difference. Pupils enjoy exceptionally strong, caring relationships with adults, who know them very well. This helps pupils to feel happy. They know that there is always an adult available to help them if they are worried. Staff are passionate about providing the very best education for pupils. From key stage 3 to the sixth form, there is no ceiling to the school’s high ambitions for what pupils can achieve. Pupils, all of whom have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve highly. They are superbly well prepared for their next steps in education. Pupils are respectful of others, and they behave extremely well around school. Older pupils are excellent role models for their peers. They relish the many responsibilities that they have. For example, at lunchtimes, they serve meals and support younger pupils. Pupils enjoy an impressive range of opportunities to develop pupils’ personal, social and life skills. Pupils delight in the opportunities that they have to develop their resilience and confidence in the woodland area. They work with tenacity and pride when designing show gardens as part of ‘The Rumworth School Grand Show’.
