From the moment pupils first join the school, staff get to know their interests and aspirations well. They work hard to help pupils experience success and achieve their potential. Staff get the best out of pupils by offering support and reassurance. Pupils are put at ease by the respectful, trusting and professional relationships staff form with them. Consequently, a happy and inclusive ethos permeates into everyday school routines. Pupils learn to manage their feelings successfully. Staff sensitively provide pupils with direction to reflect on their actions and decisions. This guidance enables pupils to gain an appreciation of the impact their behaviour has on others. Over time, pupils develop a clear understanding of how their words and choices can sometimes have negative consequences for them and others. One pupil said, ‘It is not good to upset anyone, because hurting others will make us all sad.’ Staff have high expectations. Pupils describe their school as a place where ‘each day is a fresh new start’. They enjoy the interesting range of enrichment activities, such as crafts, football and basketball. Pupils look forward to trips to the trampoline park, the leisure centre, the animal centre, the nature reserve and the cinema.
