“Pupils are warmly welcomed at iMap Centre.”
“Parents and carers told inspectors that the school has made a positive difference to their children’s lives.”
“Pupils enjoy nurturing relationships with staff.”

“However, there are a few teachers who do not have the subject knowledge required to deliver the curriculum as well as they could.”
