Pupils at this school get another chance to succeed in education after previous negative experiences. Pupils’ needs are accurately identified through a thorough admissions and induction process. Together with pupils, leaders explore what helps pupils to learn and what they find challenging. Staff use this information to plan an appropriate curriculum. This includes tailored support for each pupil. Pupils’ personal development is at the centre of this curriculum. Staff start by establishing positive relationships. This helps pupils to re-engage in learning. The wide and varied range of opportunities help to build pupils’ confidence.

They are justifiably proud of their successes. Pupils behave well in lessons and at social times and show respect to staff. Bullying does not happen often.
