School Description

The school came into existence in September 2016 when the predecessor school became part of the Orchard Hill College and Academy Trust. The school admits children from the age of five upwards. A high proportion of pupils stay on into the school sixth form, where they may stay until they are age 19. All pupils have an education, health and care plan. These mostly relate to behavioural, social, emotional and mental health needs and autism spectrum disorder. The proportion of pupils who are entitled to free school meals is well above average, as is the proportion of pupils who speak English as an additional language. About a third of the pupils are from White British backgrounds. Other pupils are from Black African and Inspection report: Nightingale Community Academy, 23–24 January 2019 Page 8 of 11 Caribbean or mixed-race heritage. The school site includes ‘Tom’s Farm’. This is a small farm that enables pupils to learn about and to look after a variety of animals, including rare-breed pigs, as well as learning about horticulture.
