School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education. Your school is clearly putting its motto, ‘inspiring bright futures’, into practice. Leaders and governors have created a clear vision that emphasises pupils’ destinations when they leave. This has established a shared understanding of expectations for staff and pupils. Leaders promote high aspirations with regard to conduct and achievement. Pupils aim high and follow individualised pathways towards their desired destinations. Pupils gain substantially in confidence during their time at the school. Since the previous inspection, leaders have developed a robust assessment process to track pupils’ progress. Progress is good across the curriculum, and those pupils eligible for the pupil premium make as much progress as others. Staff have strong knowledge and understanding of the pupils’ needs. They tailor support to help pupils reach their intended destinations. Leaders have created a positive climate throughout the school so pupils enjoy learning and being creative. Staff are proud of their school and feel well supported by senior leaders. The environment reflects the high expectations of leaders and supports the sensory needs of the pupils. Leaders have reviewed and improved the systems for checking the quality of teaching. Senior leaders identify strengths and areas for development accurately.
