Harry Watts Academy is a school of immense warmth and care. It is a family school. Leaders, staff and the trust have a limitless ambition for what pupils can achieve. This is more than just words or an optimistic vision. It is backed up by a very carefully-thought-out and effective curriculum, which is implemented exceedingly well across both the Redhouse and Harraton sites. The school’s attitude to what pupils can achieve is best summed up by what one parent told inspectors: ‘Here my son is defined by what he can do, not by what he can’t.’ Pupils are happy in school. Inspectors found no evidence of bullying. Pupils are safe and staff will deal with any problems diligently and with expertise. Pupils know that they are to be kind towards one another. As a result, Harry Watts Academy is a school of respect, tolerance and understanding. Everyone at the school is totally committed to ensuring that pupils receive the best education and the best opportunities as a right. Pupils’ special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are not seen as a barrier to achieving this. School, parents and carers work in partnership, through effective communication about pupils’ needs, to make sure that pupils at Harry Watts Academy get what they are entitled to.
