School Description

Pupils have experienced a lot of recent changes. The school has grown in size and has relocated to new, fit for purpose buildings. A new headteacher, supported by a new team of leaders, leads and manages the school. Some staff have left and new staff have joined. Some pupils have had to work at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. During this time, staff have ensured that pupils remain safe and able to continue with their learning. The changes have led to some uncertainty. Currently, not all pupils attend regularly or behave well enough. The curriculum has changed to give pupils more ‘hands-on’ learning in small groups with lots of support from staff. Pupils really enjoy practical activities in physical education and sport, food technology and learning outdoors. They are less keen on writing. Not all of them develop into fluent, confident readers because they do not read often enough. All pupils have special educational needs and/or disabilities. Staff know them and their personal needs well. Regular English, mathematics and careers lessons provide them with the knowledge needed to make choices about the next stage in their learning. Most pupils leaving Year 11 go on to college placements.
