Pupils are receiving a poor standard of education. Leadership is not effective. Governors have been too slow to intervene to remedy the weaknesses in the school. The curriculum does not meet the needs of all pupils, especially those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Leaders have not ensured that staff are well trained in delivering the school’s curriculum. Consequently, pupils do not achieve well. Relationships between staff and pupils are a strength of the school. Most pupils feel safe and happy. They have confidence that staff will provide the right support and guidance when they need it. Pupils know what bullying is. They say that bullying is rare and feel supported by staff. However, pupils complain that behaviour is not always positive, and learning is regularly disrupted. This frustrates them as it interrupts their lessons. Pupils value the extra-curricular clubs that are on offer, like boxercise and pottery. Pupils also learn about water safety. They say that they enjoy learning about how to stay safe on the beach and how their confidence with swimming in the sea has improved. Parents are positive about the work of the school. Leaders know pupils and their families well.
