School Description

Pupils at this school have often spent time out of education previously. They appreciate staff’s efforts to help them have a positive experience of school and keep them safe. Pupils value the strong relationships they forge with staff and the friendships they make with their peers. Some pupils come to school more frequently than they did previously. However, others do not attend often enough. Pupils know that staff want them to be successful. However, the curriculum in many subjects is poorly organised. Pupils often cannot recall key knowledge. Too many pupils struggle to read confidently. This has a negative impact on how well they learn in other subjects. Behaviour is improving. There are fewer incidents that lead to pupils being suspended or restrained. Bullying happens, but it is usually resolved. Most pupils respond appropriately when staff challenge their unacceptable language. Pupils like gaining points for their positive conduct in lessons. However, some pupils struggle to regulate their behaviour. They disrupt their own, and others’, learning and social times. Pupils enjoy weekly enrichment sessions, including music, drama and gaming. Activities such as go-karting, paintballing and sailing help them to socialise positively with each other. However, there are too few opportunities for pupils to find out about their possible next steps or potential careers.

Castles Education Catchment Area Map

This school is independently managed and its admission criteria may be selective. There is no set catchment area as pupils are admitted from a wide variety of postcodes and, in the case of boarding schools, from outside the UK. Contact the school directly or visit their website for more information on Admissions Policy and Procedures.
