This means that pupils settle quickly, make progress and thrive. All staff strive to support pupils to behave as well as they can. Pupils enjoy earning rewards through the stars system. They know that their efforts will be celebrated, and they respond very positively to praise. As a result, pupils work hard in lessons and enjoy their learning. Personal development is central to the school’s work. Every pupil has an ambitious target to help them work towards achieving independence. The Learning for Life curriculum is woven through everything pupils do. This means pupils have many varied opportunities to develop skills for independence.
