Strengths
- “This school is successfully preparing pupils to go back to full-time education.”
- “Many sustain their placements when they go back to mainstream schools or when they go to post-16 colleges.”
- “This is because the school carefully matches the curriculum to pupils’ aspirations.”
To improve
- “Occasionally, pupils fall below the school’s expectations with their behaviour.”
- “However, on occasion, pupils are not helped sufficiently to explain and discuss their ideas.”
- “While pupils have targets for communication in their personalised learning plans, there is no agreed school approach to the development of pupils’ oracy.”
