In a short space of time, pupils have started to thrive at Salford Farm Outdoor Learning Centre. This is because they feel safe and well cared for. Staff know the pupils and genuinely understand their needs. They go above and beyond to support those needs. As a result, pupils have made a great start to fulfilling the vision of the school to ‘contribute independently to society, embrace lifelong learning and achieve without ceiling’. The school has high expectations for both behaviour and learning. The pupils are well supported to meet these high expectations. Pupils enjoy learning through a range of engaging and well-planned experiences. The school has spent time building an accurate understanding of what the pupils can and cannot do in their core subjects. Staff provide work well matched to pupils’ ability. This has supported pupils to develop more confidence. They are now ready to make even more progress. Pupils make positive contributions to their school community. They support and encourage each other when carrying out challenges, participate in discussions to understand differences, and contribute to the purchase of resources through donating part of their rewards. Pupils are being well prepared for life in modern Britain.
