School Description

High Park School is a highly supportive and inclusive environment for pupils to learn in. The school is mostly ambitious for its pupils. It has a deep commitment to developing pupils’ communication and interaction skills. Pupils are well prepared for their next steps in education and life. The curriculum is organised to ensure pupils become successful learners. Pupils receive patient and caring support from staff who understand their needs well. As a result, pupils feel safe and happy in the school. Pupils benefit from a range of specialist resources and therapies that support their personal development and special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). These are used effectively to ensure pupils can learn well. Staff proactively support pupils to behave positively. As a result, the school is typically calm and orderly. Pupils mostly engage with their learning with enthusiasm. Staff swiftly intervene if pupils become unsettled. This helps pupils focus on learning well. The school supports pupils’ personal development exceptionally well. It ensures pupils experience a variety of opportunities that contribute to their broader development and build their independence. This helps them to develop socially, emotionally and academically.
