School Description

Pupils like the stability and consistency that the permanent headteacher and staff have brought to Eden School. As a result, pupils now attend school more often. The school is calmer and more orderly than in the past. When they are in school, the vast majority of pupils take part in lessons and behave well. Teachers set pupils work which pupils find interesting. Pupils know that if they are struggling to cope, staff will help them. They know that they must complete all of their work before the end of the school day. Teachers have high expectations of pupils. Pupils generally treat each other and their teachers with respect. Bullying is rare. When bullying happens, staff deal with it well. Pupils feel safe in school. From when they start at the school, pupils are happier, healthier and better prepared for their next steps. Pupils are well informed about college courses, apprenticeships and jobs. This information helps them make sensible decisions about what to do when they leave school. While pupils and staff agree that much has improved, there is more to do. Leaders have not yet set out in enough detail what pupils need to learn and the order in which they need to learn new things. This makes it hard for pupils to use what they already know and can do to help them make sense of new learning.
