At Elm House, staff help pupils to get back on track with their education. Pupils learn to come to school regularly and on time. They are given clear, fair and simple rules to follow. However, they also have a say in what happens at school. Pupils also learn how to manage their feelings and behaviour in positive ways. Staff notice and reward good behaviour and step in quickly if there are any problems. Pupils are not worried about bullying because they feel secure and safe in class and on the playground. They know that adults will look after them and do the right thing. Each week, pupils study lots of different subjects. Whatever their starting points, staff make sure that work is pitched at the right level. They give pupils lots of praise and help them a lot with their reading, writing and number work. Teachers encourage pupils to join after-school clubs and every pupil has a special job to do at school. Pupils usually enjoy school and value the regular routines that happen each week. If anything upsets them, then staff give them the time and space they need to calm down.
