Strengths
- “The school is expert in understanding and meeting the needs of pupils with autism spectrum disorder.”
- “Pupils appreciate the exceptionally calm and orderly environment throughout the school.”
- “All pupils receive carefully tailored support that enables them to become increasingly able to recognise and manage their physical and emotional well-being.”
To improve
- “The achievement of some pupils, however, is limited, because the support the school provides for those at an early stage of learning to read lacks precision.”
- “In a small number of subjects, the school is continuing to refine the curriculum to ensure that the stages of learning each pupil needs to go through to achieve highly are clearly set out.”
- “The school has not, however, developed sufficient expertise in the teaching of phonics and reading to ensure that the support provided for pupils is precise and enables every pupil to learn to read effectively.”
