This is a time of change at Rigby Hall. Leaders, staff and governors are committed to pupils achieving the most from their time at school. Their actions show a determination to make the necessary improvements quickly. All know there is more work to ensure the new curriculum is well implemented in all classes. Pupils have a wide range of special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Staff work hard with families to gain a clear understanding of these needs. However, staff do not use this information consistently to adapt the curriculum to help pupils learn more and do more over time. Leaders have created a unique and engaging environment for pupils to learn in. The outdoor gym, forest school, and the life skills village enrich pupils’ learning and experiences. Pupils learn to cross the road on the school zebra crossing. Regular trips into town to buy things from a local shop enriches what they learn in school lessons. Rigby Hall is a calm and purposeful environment. Consequently, behaviour is generally positive in lessons and at other times, such as breaktimes and lunchtimes. Leaders follow up on any incidents of bullying. Pupils feel confident that an adult will listen to any concerns they may have.
