Strengths
- “This school gives pupils a fresh start in education.”
- “Pupils form positive and trusting relationships with staff who listen to them and understand their needs.”
- “Pupils constantly receive ‘unconditional positive regard’ from staff.”
To improve
- “However, they also recognise that in order to meet the changing needs of the cohort of learners, there is some further sharpening of initial assessments needed, particularly around reading.”
- “Due to recent changes, the membership of the management committee is not currently at full capacity.”
- “Further actions need to be considered to ensure the committee has the capacity needed to continue to support the school.”
