School Description

Pupils are thriving in this deeply caring and ambitious school. Warm and nurturing relationships ensure that pupils are joyful, safe and enthusiastic to grow and learn. Expectations are high and behaviour is excellent. Pupils are proud ambassadors for their school. When pupils struggle with emotions, expert care helps them to return to a calm mindset and ready to continue learning. The school has relentlessly high ambitions for all. School life brings out the best in everyone here. Many pupils start the day with high-quality physical activities and support to help them with balance, agility and control. This boosts pupils’ mental and emotional well-being to help them to be ready for the day ahead. Pupils stay healthy and active through lunchtime sports clubs and exciting opportunities to play tennis, go horse riding or attend the local gym. Pupils achieve their targets well in areas, such as communication, reading, personal development and speech and language. Students in the sixth form achieve a range of awards through a highly developed programme of opportunities. Students are proud to earn qualifications while developing valuable skills to prepare them impressively for the future. For example, students take food orders from staff and then prepare, cook and serve lunch.
