Pupils thrive in this nurturing school. Leaders and staff know the pupils exceptionally well. Consequently, pupils are set ambitious learning goals. Pupils achieve well. The relationships between pupils and adults are excellent. Staff consistently ask pupils to make choices. Staff skilfully use a range of communication methods to enable the pupils to express their views. Pupils’ views are celebrated and valued. All parents and carers who answered the Ofsted Parent View survey and who spoke with inspectors said that their child was happy at school. One parent said, ‘The school feels like a family.’ Parents are very positive about the communication between school and home. Staff write about pupils’ learning in the home-school books. In addition, staff upload photographs and commentary of pupils’ learning to an app. This enables parents to know what their child has learned. This is particularly appreciated by parents whose children are non-verbal. Leaders and staff work closely with a range of professionals from health, social care and the local authority. This enables the pupils to receive the right support to meet their medical and well-being needs. Pupils behave well. Tailored support is provided to pupils who require further help to enable them to regulate their behaviours.
