Strengths
- “In this nurturing environment, pupils are supported to develop their social skills at their own pace.”
- “They enjoy making new friends and value the positive social interaction they have with their peers.”
- “They appreciate the range of activities on offer to develop these skills, such as axe throwing, ice skating and visits to an alpaca farm.”
To improve
- “In a minority of subjects, the curriculum is not as precise as it should be.”
- “It is not always clear what knowledge and skills pupils will need to develop in these areas.”
- “As a result, pupils do not always benefit from work that allows them to make as much progress through the curriculum as they should.”
