Special schools provide a unique and distinctive educational environment to meet the needs of the pupils in their community. Undertaking standard tests may not be appropriate and we do not show performance data for special schools.

Pupils are safe. Trusted adults listen and help. Many pupils are very positive about the difference the school is making to them. Most parents agree. Pupils learn the school’s routines and expectations on arrival. Typically, pupils settle quickly after previous unsuccessful school placements. Most pupils have a diagnosis of autism. Pupils receive a specialist curriculum. The wide range of subjects capture pupils interests well. A therapeutic curriculum is developing. However, there remain weaknesses in the delivery of the curriculum. Teaching does not build securely on what pupils need to learn next. Some pupils’ gaps in knowledge persist. Pupils work hard. The more they attend, the more they learn, including how to regulate their behaviour and deal with any anxieties they have. Some pupils, however, miss a lot of school. Very recently the school has raised its expectations of what pupils can achieve by supporting families to help pupils to attend more, but it is early days. Pupils do a lot of appealing things during what the school calls ‘excellence afternoons’, including the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. There is a range of outdoor adventurous activities and interesting sports like archery. Staff encourage pupils to work together. For example, they are planning their first Christmas Fair.

2015 GCSE RESULTSImportant information for parents
Due to number of reforms to GSCE reporting introduced by the government in 2014, such as the exclusion of iGCSE examination results, the official school performance data may not accurately report a school’s full results. For more information, please see About and refer to the section, ‘Why does a school show 0% on its GSCE data dial? In many affected cases, the Average Point Score will also display LOW SCORE as points for iGCSEs and resits are not included.
Schools can upload their full GCSE results by registering for a School Noticeboard. All school results data will be verified.
