School Description

Staff at this school make it their mission to meet the individual needs of every pupil who attends. Pupils settle into the routines of school life well when they join the school. The school can demonstrate dramatic improvements in attendance and behaviour of pupils. Pupils learn that this is a safe place to be. They are taught how to manage their own behaviours positively. Building good, strong personal characteristics with pupils is central to everything that happens in school. Skilled pastoral staff manage expectations of what pupils can do and should do. They ensure that all staff are kept up to date with pupils’ changing needs. A comprehensive personal, social and health education and spiritual, moral, social and cultural curriculum are planned, alongside a strong careers curriculum, to give pupils the opportunities to succeed in life after school. Expectations of behaviour and what pupils can achieve academically are high. In core subjects, the curriculum that pupils study is relevant and well sequenced. This helps pupils remember what they need to know. In some subjects, school leaders need to make the expectations of exactly what pupils need to know, and in what order, more precise.
