School Description

Pupils like coming to this school. They feel safe here and know that their teachers care for them. They enjoy making friends and getting to know other pupils. Many parents told us about the positive impact that attending this school has had on their child. For example, in response to our survey, one parent wrote, ‘Our son is excited about going to school and the things he does there. They’ve helped with his confidence and opening him up to trying new things.’ Although pupils enjoy their lessons, they do not always learn as much as they could. Sometimes what they are taught is not challenging enough or does not take account of their different starting points. Pupils are not always given the opportunity to deepen and extend their learning to their full potential. There are a wide range of enrichment activities, which form part of the school day. Pupils benefit from learning about topics such as horticulture, bike maintenance and cookery. They enjoy learning outdoors, making use of the school’s grounds and woodland site. These opportunities help pupils to develop their confidence and widen their experience of the world.
