What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 29 April 2025

The atmosphere at Jasmine Hall School is friendly, nurturing and welcoming. Staff build extremely positive and supportive relationships with pupils. This is because they take the time to get to know pupils' interests and past experiences in detail. Pupils are well cared for. They know that they can talk to staff if they have any worries and will always be helped. All pupils at this school have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The school prioritises pupils' well-being and mental health, as well as their academic success. For newcomers to the school, there is an extensive transition and induction process that allows pupils to settle in well. The school's vision is captured in its ambition for pupils to 'feel safe, valued and inspired'. These high aims ensure that pupils feel safe, appreciated and keen to learn. Pupils flourish at Jasmine Hall. Pupils' behaviour is praiseworthy. They are excellent ambassadors for the school. Pupils contribute to life in school and the local community. For example, they collect Easter eggs to donate to a local children's hospital. They play a pivotal role in designing the school environment. These experiences help pupils to develop a sense of responsibility and an understanding of people less fortunate than themselves.

What the school should improve

  • In a small number of subjects, intended learning is not implemented as effectively as it could be. This limits what pupils can achieve in these subjects. The school should ensure that suitable pedagogical choices are made, so that the clearly sequenced curriculum is delivered as planned, and pupils achieve as well as they could.
