School Description

This is a welcoming school. Pupils contribute well to this ethos. Whether it is a simple greeting or pupils keen to share their experiences, they make visitors feel welcome. Positive relationships exist between staff and pupils. This helps pupils to feel safe in school. Most pupils attend school regularly. They feel confident to talk to adults if they have a concern. Pupils are clear that any concerns will be resolved quickly. The school is developing their curriculum to meet pupils’ special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Some pupils experience variability in the quality of education and provision at the school. There are aspects of the curriculum that help pupils to build learning and prepare them well for life beyond school. However, pupils’ learning across the curriculum is uneven as, in some pathways, their needs are not met as well as they should be. The school has clear expectations for pupils’ behaviour. Consequently, behaviour is typically positive. When pupils require additional support, staff are child-centred in their approaches and work quickly to intervene and offer the support that is needed. Most parents are happy with the school’s provision. However, the school recognises there is more to do to ensure all pupils flourish and attain the best outcomes.
