School Description

Pupils that join this recently opened school have experienced much turbulence to their education previously. The school is a safe space for pupils to start to re-engage with their learning. Staff encourage pupils to have a voice at school. Pupils value this. This helps the school to identify pupils’ needs and interests. Staff are starting to build learning around these. This helps pupils develop a positive attitude to education. The school expects pupils to engage with learning. Pupils are beginning to rise to this. For example, they learn in the local community. This supports pupils to secure some of the important knowledge for their next steps. For example, they grow their understanding of healthy eating and the benefits of a balanced exercise programme through using the local gym. These visits help pupils learn to be responsible when outside school. Pupils get support from staff to manage their feelings and mental health. Typically, there are positive relationships between pupils and staff. Pupils develop respect towards adults. The school works well with other professionals. Pupils benefit from this external support.
