Brookfields School is an inspiring environment, in which pupils flourish. Pupils are proud to be a part of this school. Staff place the pupils’ educational, personal, social and emotional development at the core of all that they do. They create a calm atmosphere, where pupils are happy and secure. Pupils’ behaviour is commendable. They feel valued as individuals. Staff are highly skilled in supporting pupils to manage their feelings and emotions. This includes children in the early years. In lessons, pupils persevere with tasks extremely well. All pupils at the school have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They face significant difficulties and challenges in their learning and development. Staff are expertly trained to support pupils to overcome any barriers which they may face. Across curriculum subjects, pupils’ achievement from their individual starting points is impressive. This is because staff are exceptionally ambitious for all pupils. The school prioritises pupils’ wider development. Pupils are absorbed in the many opportunities on offer to them. These help to develop and broaden their understanding of the world around them. For example, pupils take part in a theatre production with other local schools. This gives them the chance to experience a range of different plays and to perform with others.
