Strengths
- “Venture Academy is a place where staff have an unconditional positive regard for pupils.”
- “Pupils appreciate how understanding staff are, which make them feel happy, safe and settled.”
- “They know that staff have their best interests at heart and that they go above and beyond to help.”
To improve
- “There are, however, times when teachers do not check pupils’ understanding during lessons effectively enough.”
- “This means that some activities they give pupils can be too easy or too difficult.”
- “Before coming here, many pupils have had negative experiences of education and often lack confidence.”
