School Description

Buzz Learning provides a personalised and nurturing alternative for pupils who have found mainstream education difficult. The school caters solely for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities. All pupils at the school have an education, health and care plan. The staff provide a well-organised and predictable school day that suits its pupils well. Most pupils enjoy the atmosphere. Once they join the school, most pupils improve their attendance. Although small, the school provides a broad curriculum. Teachers deliver lively lessons that re-engage the pupils. Most pupils find the lessons interesting. The teachers are good at breaking new learning down into small steps. Some parts of the curriculum are being taught more effectively than others. Overall, pupils are making good progress and are achieving accreditations on the courses they follow. Last year, pupils who left the school all found places in education, employment or training. Pupils behave well and are respectful of the caring staff. Relationships are good. Pupils feel safe. Sometimes pupils find things difficult, including how they relate to one another. But the staff know the pupils very well and are quick to sort out any problems that arise. Activities such as the ‘daily mile’ walks provide good opportunities for the staff to get to know the pupils really well.
