Strengths
- “The school values of empathy, perseverance, independence, creativity and collaboration (EPICC) underpin every aspect of school life.”
- “There are strong relationships between adults and pupils.”
- “This is because staff know pupils and their families well.”
To improve
- “However, leaders know that more work is needed to ensure that teachers adapt other curriculum subjects to the same standard in order to support and embed the learning of pupils with SEND.”
- “However, currently, staff recognise that there are limited roles the children can take on, and this is being reviewed.”
