Pupils at Redwood Park love coming to school. They like the kind and happy atmosphere. The school is a calm place to learn because pupils behave extremely well. Staff are positive, friendly and caring. They understand pupils’ needs and know how to help pupils get back on track if they occasionally become distressed. Pupils know how to seek help if they are worried about anything. This helps them to feel safe. Pupils are eager to be able to do more for themselves. During their time at the school, pupils improve their communication skills, gain confidence and become more independent. They enjoy attending the many clubs and activities that the school offers, both on site and in the local community. For example, pupils visit the sea front, learn how to kayak and how to spend money in shops. In the last couple of years, there has been some changes to how the school is organised. This is because some aspects of the school were not working as well as they might. Much has already improved. The school is more ambitious for pupils’ achievement. Leaders and staff are working hard to make sure that these ambitions are realised consistently well.
