What This School Does Well

This school excels at supporting pupils with complex learning needs and autism. Teachers use creative adapted communication methods like symbols and signing to help pupils learn, and they have very high expectations for every child. The school creates a calm, caring environment where pupils enjoy learning and feel safe.

Key Strengths

  • Good quality teaching that helps all pupils make solid progress, including those with complex needs and autism
  • Pupils behave well, feel safe and secure, with above-average attendance
  • Effective leadership and management that has improved teaching quality and pupil progress
  • Teachers have high expectations and carefully track progress in very small steps
  • Strong support for disadvantaged pupils and those learning English as an additional language

Areas for Improvement

  • Teaching needs to become outstanding to help pupils make faster progress
  • Sometimes pupils don't understand tasks clearly enough, which slows their learning
  • Adults don't always use consistent communication methods with individual pupils, causing confusion
  • Some pupils need clearer explanations of what they need to do next to improve their work

Safeguarding

Safeguarding procedures are effective with robust medical interventions, risk assessments, and safety protocols in place.
