“The school seeks to provide each pupil with a tailored education which includes appropriate independent learning opportunities within a caring community. It aims to maximise pupils’ abilities as well as their understanding of themselves. Pupils achieve good and sometimes excellent results. [They] arrive with a wide range of learning skills [and] show a strong acquisition of knowledge, skills and understanding as they move through the school … They achieve success in many individual and group activities and are very appreciative of the school’s enrichment programme. Pupils develop excellent self-knowledge, self-esteem and resilience rapidly, sometimes in the face of considerable personal challenges. They feel valued and appreciate staff who help them develop their interests and ability to promote a sense of self-worth.”
