Education - Unique Care Homes

"Since the core inspection, leaders and teachers have worked tirelessly to strengthen the work of the school. Staff have a strong sense of purpose and work together very well to promote pupils’ education and well-being. Estyn - November 2024"

"Teachers and pupil relationships are respectful and constructive. Pupils respond well to the caring and committed approach of staff. Teachers, support staff and therapists work together well to create supportive learning environments. Over time, the strong working relationships between pupils and staff help to improve pupils’ confidence and well-being. In lessons, many pupils are well motivated and engage well in learning. Estyn - November 2024"

"The school monitors pupils’ progress in relation to their attendance and behaviour well. Leaders regularly analyse data to check for patterns of behaviour and share this information with the wider team to support them to plan appropriate strategies for improvements. This is having a positive impact on pupils’ behaviour and has led to a notable reduction in the incidents of poor behaviour at the school. Estyn - November 2024"
