Approaches to managing behaviour do not support pupils’ well-being and safety. Staff and leaders have low expectations of pupils’ behaviour. They accept pupils’ frequent use of foul language. Staff do not deal effectively with situations when pupils become dysregulated or struggle to control their emotions. Poor behaviour then escalates. It can become violent and aggressive. Staff and pupils have been injured as a result. A number of pupils attend the school on a part-time basis, and some are educated at home full time. In most cases, this is because the school cannot meet their behavioural needs. As a general rule, pupils do not engage with the home learning tasks and activities that staff provide. This has a negative effect on pupils’ academic progress and their access to personal development programmes. When pupils are in school, staff work very closely with them. This means that bullying between pupils is extremely rare. Staff spend time talking to pupils about their concerns and worries. Some parents and carers praised how hard staff try to support pupils. Pupils attending school go on trips and visits as part of an effective personal development programme. Pupils also enjoy taking part in art therapy.
