Pupils’ happy faces show how much they enjoy school. Warm and trusting relationships with staff help pupils to feel safe and secure. In the early years, children enjoy using their senses to explore the many resources on offer. Older pupils enjoy playing with their friends in the school’s extensive grounds. Pupils of all ages thrive and develop confidence in the school’s friendly, nurturing atmosphere. All pupils who attend Lansbury Bridge have education, health and care (EHC) plans. Many have complex barriers to their learning and development. Regardless of these challenges, the school has high expectations for what pupils can achieve. Pupils learn to communicate effectively in different ways. This helps them to participate in lessons to the full. From the early years to key stage 3, pupils achieve well from their individual starting points. Pupils understand the school’s clear and simple rules and routines. They try their best to follow them each day. For example, pupils wait for their turn to select the food that they want to eat at lunchtime. They learn to move sensibly around school. This helps to make the school a calm and orderly place. There are many opportunities for pupils to develop personally. Pupils learn about relationships and the differences and similarities between themselves and others. Pupils take on important roles of responsibility in school, for example as members of the school council. These experiences help to prepare pupils for life beyond school.
