School Description

Staff are dedicated to making a difference to the lives of pupils here. They provide a nurturing environment where pupils are safe and have the chance to succeed. Many pupils arrive at the school with a negative experience of education. Staff give pupils the individual time, care and attention that they need for pupils’ confidence and resilience to develop. As a result, pupils feel at ease and start to enjoy their learning here. For some pupils when they join the school, it can take time to settle in and adjust to the routines and high expectations of the school. Staff are skilled in managing pupils’ behaviour. They are patient and caring. Staff work hard to forge positive working relationships with pupils and their parents and carers. Pupils appreciate what staff do to support them. For example, at a recent assembly to celebrate 'International Women's Day', pupils read out poems and stories about staff to thank them. The curriculum is much more than the subjects that pupils study. Pupils have access to a range of therapies and mentoring opportunities which help them to manage their emotional well-being, behaviour and develop social skills. Pupils enjoy spending time in school on activities such as boxing, athletics and robotics.
