School Description

Pupils love coming to Serenity School. They described their experiences very positively, saying that they are happy and feel safe. Pupils get on well with each other and any bullying is tackled quickly. One pupil told the lead inspector how lucky pupils feel to attend this school. A parent, reflecting on her daughter’s experience, said, ‘It is the best school she has attended in her whole life.’ Staff have high expectations of pupils’ attendance, behaviour and learning. They work hard to develop pupils’ self-esteem, confidence and independence. When pupils first arrive, staff find out as much as possible about them. Staff use this information to create a highly bespoke curriculum. As a result, pupils make excellent progress academically, socially and emotionally, and are prepared well for the future. Pupils benefit from well-embedded routines that help to keep things calm and predictable. Staff have an infectious positivity. They greet pupils each morning, making sure that pupils get off to a good start for the day. The daily mile not only provides an opportunity for exercise, but it also gives pupils much-needed time to talk to staff and peers, and to develop social and communication skills.

Serenity School Catchment Area Map

This school is independently managed and its admission criteria may be selective. There is no set catchment area as pupils are admitted from a wide variety of postcodes and, in the case of boarding schools, from outside the UK.
