Pupils have a strong sense of belonging at this warm and inclusive school. This is a place where difference is celebrated, and pupils feel that they are valued members of the school community. Pupils enjoy strong, nurturing relationships with staff, who care deeply about their well-being. This helps pupils to feel happy and secure. They trust that there is always a member of staff available to help them if they are worried. They know they are in safe hands. The school has high expectations of pupils’ learning. Pupils are taught by teachers who know them well. The thoughtfully designed curriculum prepares pupils, all of whom have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), well for the next steps in their education and adult life. Pupils are respectful of others. They conduct themselves well around school. Staff notice when pupils experience distress and respond sensitively to pupils’ emotional needs. They are successful in helping pupils to manage their behaviour and feelings. Pupils enjoy the varied ‘enterprise’ activities that they can be involved in. For example, they planned a school ‘prom’ evening. Pupils were given budgets to organise the venue and decorations, as well as the music, food, and drink. These opportunities enable pupils to gain a wealth of skills and to build their confidence and independence.
