School Description

Pupils at Glyne Gap School start their day joyfully. Every pupil is welcomed warmly and greeted by name. Parents and carers and school staff, including transport staff, work well together to ensure pupils transition positively into the school building. Pupils’ independence is encouraged. For example, some pupils move independently to their individual classes, while others show their supporting adult the way to go. An atmosphere of positivity pervades the school. Pupils and staff are cheerful, friendly and respectful of one another. Skilled staff support pupils effectively to manage their behaviour and emotions. This ensures that pupils learn well. Pupils’ sense of safety and trust in staff is shown through smiles and laughter as well as through positive engagement with learning tasks. Every pupil is known and loved. Ambition for pupils’ is high. Leaders, staff and parents agree that the school’s core purpose is to enable pupils to live happy, purposeful and fulfilled lives now and into their futures. Daily learning successfully supports preparation for next steps. Over a period of years, pupils work towards ‘super-goals’, such as toileting independently. When achieved, these are widely celebrated and new goals are set.
