Strengths
- “Pupils flourish at LeAF Studio School.”
- “Many parents and carers are overwhelmingly positive about the transformation of their child since joining the school.”
- “Pupils feel part of a special community.”
To improve
- “Although the key stages 4 and 5 academic published outcomes are lower than is typical nationally, pupils join the school in Year 9 so do not experience their full curriculum journey here.”
- “This is more embedded in the specialist areas than in the core curriculum.”
- “However, within the core curriculum, the targets for pupils with SEND are not always precise or reviewed often enough.”
