Strengths
- “Pupils at Brook View School are greeted each day by nurturing staff.”
- “They feel cared for, and their interactions with adults show that they feel safe.”
- “Pupils settle in quickly when they start at the school.”
To improve
- “However, some aspects of the curriculum are not as well defined in terms of the aspirations and goals that the school wants pupils to achieve.”
- “This means that, in a small number of subjects, staff do not have some of the guidance that they need to fully adapt learning to help pupils achieve the very best outcomes.”
- “The school’s provision for careers information, education, advice and guidance is at an early stage of development.”
