Strengths
- “Leaders' recent changes mean that staff now run the start of the day as a calm, well-choreographed routine.”
- “They greet pupils from their transport, or from their parent or carer, with familiar faces and predictable cues.”
- “If a guided hand helps a pupil feel ready, staff offer it.”
To improve
- “Pupils are not achieving well enough.”
- “Sometimes, they disengage from learning because tasks are either too easy or too hard.”
- “Others, particularly pupils who are nonverbal or pre-verbal, respond in unsettled ways.”
