School Description

Being a pupil at this school means joining a friendly community that values happiness and safety. Pupils enjoy a calm environment and access to beautiful grounds, including a sensory garden and outdoor gym equipment. They feel secure because staff are caring. The school prioritises well-being with activities like hydrotherapy and sensory play, which boost pupils’ happiness and sense of security. Behaviour is typically positive, with a strong focus on understanding and managing emotions. Lunchtimes are peaceful, allowing pupils to enjoy meals together. They participate in activities that build social skills and teamwork, such as inter-school sports festivals to showcase their talents. When challenges arise, pupils receive support to make positive choices, fostering a supportive and inclusive culture. The school aspires to have high expectations for pupils, including students in the sixth form. However, these are not fully realised. Pupils make progress in practical life skills and physical development, using equipment like standing frames and specialist seating to engage in lessons. For too many pupils, opportunities to practise and build on what they know are limited. For example, the current approach to phonics delays progress for those able to develop reading skills.
