School Description

High Park is a rapidly improving school. Staff have a very good understanding of pupils’ complex needs. They provide pupils with exemplary levels of care. Pupils are happy at the school and are safe. They build trusting relationships with staff and are keen to come to school. Pupils benefit from exceptional levels of support for their emotional health and wellbeing. This helps pupils to regulate their own behaviour. During their time at the school, pupils gain a strong sense of who they are and how to interact with others. There is no evidence to indicate that bullying ever happens. Staff focus on preparing pupils for life after school. Pupils benefit from a broad range of opportunities to enhance their personal development. Pupils take part in many opportunities to learn away from the school site. For example, pupils go swimming, and some run a café in the community. Staff have high hopes for all pupils. Pupils are helped to become more independent as soon as they join the school. Older pupils spend much of their time preparing for adulthood.
