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.

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection by carrying out a relentless programme of improvement. From the very start of the inspection the whole leadership team demonstrated their passion for improving outcomes for every child who attends the school. Your very clear vision for the future of the school is shared by staff and the governing body as well as the leadership team. This demonstrates well the strength of your leadership. Your very high expectations of everyone are clearly modelled on your own drive and determination. Staff comments such as: ‘This school is just brilliant’, and ‘We all work hard, but love working here’ reflect the views of staff overall. Observations like ‘We feel listened to’ and ‘Our contributions count’ demonstrate the strength of your commitment to the well-being of staff in the school. Your encyclopaedic knowledge of the needs of all pupils is admirable. The very clear focus on ‘getting it right for all pupils’ is directly reflected in the improvements in the quality of teaching and the progress made by pupils that you have brought about since the previous inspection. Making school even better is a continuous theme threaded through all that you and your team do. Since the previous inspection you have increased the role middle leaders play within the school. Your imaginative approach of getting middle leaders to undertake specific pieces of work linked to school improvement, such as improving communication at lunchtime, as well as monitoring pupils’ progress in their subject areas, has contributed well to whole-school improvement. You have put in place an effective model for appraising the work of staff. Your high expectations of all staff are evident in targets set which link closely to school improvement. Rewards are based on staff performance. This is contributing well to bringing about further improvement. The large number of parents who arrived to speak to the inspection team was clear evidence of your strong relationship with the local community. Their very real appreciation of all that you and your staff do for their children was evident in the feedback they gave the inspection team. Comments such as: ‘I trust the staff with my child and know he will be safe in school’; ‘Nothing is too much trouble for staff’; and ‘We receive constant communication from staff; I know exactly what my child is doing when he is at school’ reflected the views of many parents. Parents and the local community are welcomed into school regularly and many attend the myriad different events such as beauty therapy and massage classes organised by school. Representatives from different organisations such as housing benefit and physiotherapy offer services to parents on the days when parents join their children in school. This has dramatically increased attendance at these days from 33% to more than 66% of parents and carers. Developing consultant paediatric clinics in school has also increased attendance at appointments and is greatly appreciated by parents and carers. The system that senior leaders have recently put in place to measure pupils’ progress against their targets is beginning to show in the good and better progress made by pupils across the school. However, current data shows that the targets set for the most able pupils are not as challenging as they could be. Safeguarding is effective. Staff in all areas of the school are very clear that safeguarding pupils is everyone’s responsibility. Keeping children safe is central to all actions undertaken by the school. You are tenacious in your approach to following up the whereabouts of pupils who leave school at times other than at the end of a phase. Your relentless approach to this task was described by leaders as ‘like a dog with a bone’. Your high success rate with this is a tribute to your diligence. Safeguarding training is regularly provided for all staff including cleaning and carpark staff, some of whom are employed by other organisations. This ensures that all staff are kept updated on current themes and issues. The chair of the governing body is the governor responsible for safeguarding. Her very regular visits to school and the active part she takes in monitoring behavioural incidents across the school demonstrate her commitment to this role.
