What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 9 June 2026
Pupils enjoy attending this highly inclusive school. They feel happy and safe and describe staff as 'helpful', 'kind' and 'funny'. Pupils readily communicate with staff if they have any concerns over anything. They are not worried about bullying in the school, and they are confident that staff would deal quickly and effectively with any unkindness that may occur. Pupils try to behave as well as possible and know that staff help them to do this. Most pupils conduct themselves very well, and others have significantly improved their behaviour since starting at the school. Staff are very skilled at helping pupils to manage their behaviour. Most pupils have high attendance, and others have been helped to significantly reduce their absence. Attendance continues to improve as pupils want to be in school to learn. Pupils access the curriculum through 4 carefully tailored pathways. Learning is precisely adapted to meet their needs. They enjoy a range of subjects and understand how communication, reading and mathematics will help them in the future. Staff are skilled in helping pupils to secure the foundational knowledge that they will need for subsequent learning and adult life. Pupils make substantial progress from their starting points, and they achieve well, both academically and personally. They are very well prepared for their next steps. Pupils access a range of enrichment activities that develop their talents and interests and broaden their experiences. They enjoy going on trips and taking part in a variety of activities during the school day. Pupils are encouraged to cooperate with other people and to develop their independence. Pupils learn how to stay safe in school, at home and in the local community. They learn about both online and offline risks to their wellbeing.
What the school should improve
- Leaders, staff and those responsible for governance should sustain the effectiveness of their work in all areas and maintain their focus on securing the continued development of the school's high-quality provision to achieve a transformational impact for all pupils.
