Through a well-developed personal, social and health education (PSHE) curriculum, pupils learn to stay safe online and learn to identify risks in the wider community. Pupils who attend this school have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The school is calm and pupils know that staff have high expectations for what they can achieve. Pupils rise to these expectations and achieve well in most subjects. Pupils are polite and respectful to visitors. They conduct themselves in an exemplary way around the school and in lessons. Pupils say that everyone is treated fairly at the school. Pupils are empathetic to each other, appreciating that everyone has different needs. Pupils benefit from a rich range of personal development experiences that are woven into the school’s curriculum. For example, pupils visit different cities and places of worship. This helps to prepare them for life in modern Britain. Opportunities to go rock climbing and paddle boarding help to build pupils’ resilience and confidence. Career guidance and work experience help pupils to learn important life skills that prepare them well for adulthood.
