School Description

Pupils enjoy attending school and do so very regularly. They appreciate having ‘golden’ time, where they choose reward activities. They like socialising with their friends. Pupils have an excellent professional rapport with all adults at the school. Staff know them extremely well. These trusting relationships help pupils to thrive. Teachers expect pupils to try their best in class. If pupils find it hard to concentrate, teachers provide wellselected resources to help them to focus on their learning. Staff help pupils to manage their behaviour through a variety of therapies and sessions including Lego therapy, counselling, ‘draw and talk’, or spending time with Loki, the school’s therapy dog. Teachers deal effectively with any bullying. Pupils said that they would speak to any teacher if a peer was unkind to them. Pupils can report any concerns through the worry box, if they prefer. The school has recently taken part in anti-bullying week. As part of this, pupils wore odd socks to celebrate their uniqueness. They went on a kindness sponsored walk with staff, parents and carers to raise money for their school. Many parents are proud that their children attend this school.
