School Description

Skilts School is a happy place to be. Leaders and staff work hard to get to know pupils and their families well. Pupils are kept safe from harm. Leaders are determined to build on the improvements they have made to make the school even better. Changes over time have led to a better quality of education and experience for pupils. Leaders know that there is still work to do. Pupils’ behaviour has improved since the last inspection. They generally behave well and get the support they need if they are struggling to manage their behaviour. Occasionally, if staff do not explain activities clearly, pupils can lose focus in lessons. Pupils’ attendance has been affected by the pandemic. It is getting better, but there is still more to do to make sure that everyone attends school regularly. Pupils can recognise different types of bullying and know that it is unacceptable. Despite this, pupils said that some bullying does happen. Records show that there is a lack of clarity in the school about what is considered bullying. However, pupils know who they can talk to if they are worried and are confident that adults sort out issues quickly.
