School Description

This is a happy place. Pupils are welcoming to visitors. They are proud of their school, their achievements, and their teachers. Friendships are strong, particularly between older pupils. Students in the sixth form are noticeably confident, benefiting from the school’s caring culture and excellent provision to support their personal development. Pupils are kind and caring. Poor behaviour is rare. Relationships are respectful and positive. This includes between pupils themselves and especially in classrooms, where successes are celebrated triumphantly. Staff act as role models. They know pupils well. Children in the school’s early years provision are also supported well. Staff are keenly aware of the additional anxieties created by the transition into a school setting for children with complex special educational needs and/or disabilities. One noticeable feature of the school is the sense of consistency in approach from leaders and staff across the school and its three satellite sites. As a result, pupils feel safe and cared for. When asked what could be better in their school, most pupils struggled to think of anything. However, the lead inspector could hardly get a word in edgeways when pupils were asked what was great about Foreland Fields.
