“Pupils benefit from a well-thought-out transition programme into Esland Shropshire.”
“Home visits, family visits to the school and a gradually increasing timetable combine to help pupils 'turn the curve'.”
“This is effective in giving pupils the space, time and confidence to make and build on a positive start at the school.”

“However, there is more work that the school can do to further add to its offer.”
“But, as yet, pupils do not have a secure and detailed knowledge across the personal development curriculum.”
“For example, their knowledge of financial management was wobbly and understanding of careers across a range of subjects is developing.”
