Pupils enjoy coming to school. Most pupils attend well. This is significant, given that many had low attendance in their previous educational setting. Pupils are settled and happy. Teachers, therapists and support staff provide the nurture and help that pupils need. Prior to starting at the school, many pupils have missed a lot of formal education. Leaders do not let this hold pupils back. Leaders believe that in the right environment, with the right approach and support, every child can experience success. The school’s ethos of ‘motivate, educate, inspire’ is evident in the day-today life of the school. Leaders and staff have high expectations for all pupils to be the best that they can be. Most pupils engage well with their work. However, leaders need to make sure that work set by teachers is right for all pupils. Behaviour is positive. Although pupils and parents say there are times when this is not always the case. A few pupils have experienced bullying, but they say staff resolve issues quickly when they happen. Pupils told inspectors that there is always someone to talk to. Positive relationships exist across the school.
