Most pupils are educated one to one by tutors at settings in the community. They learn in a range of local venues, public spaces and cafes. Leaders have set the school up in this way to help pupils engage with their education. However, pupils do not get a good-quality education. They learn a curriculum that is too dependent on the requirements of certificated courses. It lacks clarity and detail. Tutors implement it poorly. They lack the subject expertise needed to make up for the failings in the curriculum. Consequently, pupils experience a random and muddled series of lessons. A significant proportion of pupils attend school part-time. Leaders are not ambitious enough in making sure all pupils attend full-time. As a result, pupils are not well prepared for their next steps in education, employment or training. They are ill equipped for life in modern Britain. Pupils respect their tutor. They behave well. Bullying is rare because pupils seldom see their peers at school. However, this means that pupils have few opportunities to work and socialise with each other. This limits their social development. For instance, pupils do not get the chance to learn how to cooperate with others or resolve conflict.
