Strengths

- “They benefit from how deeply staff care about them.”
- “The school makes time to get to know pupils’ needs and interests.”
To improve
- “Others say there is some, but staff deal with it really well.”

- “As a result, some pupils with SEND do not learn the curriculum as well as they could.”
