School Description

Leaders have created a nurturing environment which supports pupils to learn and achieve well. Staff work together to develop pupils’ physical, academic, social and life skills. This is done through careful curriculum thought. All pupils have ambitious bespoke targets. Leaders ensure that, overall, the curriculum is delivered effectively so that pupils meet their targets successfully. Leaders give pupils many opportunities to take on roles of responsibility, such as representing their peers on the student council. Leaders also provide pupils with a range of enrichment activities, from the early years through to the sixth form. These include, for example, recent visits from a theatre company where pupils got to try out song writing. Leaders have introduced a new behaviour policy. Staff have received lots of training on this. This means that the policy is being implemented consistently across the school. Pupils understand and follow the rules and routines that leaders have introduced. Behaviour around the school and in lessons is consistently calm and positive. Pupils are kept safe. Staff care for and supervise pupils well. Leaders and teachers communicate regularly with parents and carers. They are regularly invited into school for celebration assemblies, for instance. Pupils relish the opportunity to show their families their work and what they have been learning.
