At Oastlers, pupils learn to believe in themselves. Despite the many challenges pupils face in their lives, pupils gain GCSEs, move on to college and get jobs. Pupils aspire to live happy and fulfilling lives. They know that to achieve this, they must work hard and behave well. Pupils are proud to be part of Oastlers. They are smartly dressed, well mannered and polite. They wait patiently in line for their lunch, hold doors for adults and each other and make sure that they are on time for their lessons. Pupils follow the school rules. They know that poor behaviour and bullying are not acceptable here. This means that the school is calm and orderly throughout the day. When they join the school, pupils quickly settle in. This is because everyone, both pupils and staff, makes them feel welcome. Pupils get help and support with the things they find hard. This might be counselling, help with reading or therapeutic exercise. Pupils trust the adults who work with them. They know that these adults will keep them safe and help sort any problems out. This means that pupils enjoy their time at school and focus on their learning.
