School Description

Pupils start at the school with poor self-esteem and low aspirations. Leaders and staff inspire them to dream big. Everybody at the school wants the best for pupils. Relationships are highly positive. Small class sizes mean that teachers get to know pupils very well. Pupils grow in confidence and learn to believe in themselves. This is significant as many have not attended school for a considerable time. Learning is carefully personalised to meet pupils’ individual needs as well as their own interests. The sharp focus on achieving qualifications in English and mathematics means that pupils are well prepared for the next phase of their education and/or employment. This helps pupils settle well into college once they leave school. Pupils’ behaviour is exemplary. They arrive on time and settle quickly because of staff’s high expectations. Attitudes to learning are positive. Bullying is extremely rare. Incidents are dealt with swiftly and effectively. Pupils say that they are happy at school and feel safe. Spending time with Winston, the therapy dog, contributes to pupils’ well-being. While the wider curriculum does not stretch and challenge all pupils academically, it contributes wholly towards their social and emotional development. Opportunities available outside the classroom support pupils’ physical and mental health.
