Pupils who attend On Track have typically had difficult experiences with education in the past. Some pupils have had long periods out of school before coming to On Track. Careful transition arrangements help pupils to settle in quickly. Pupils access a well-planned curriculum that takes account of their specific, individual needs. Pupils appreciate the learning environment provided for them. For example, the ‘football cage’ outside is a much-loved play area that pupils value greatly. Pupils enjoy coming to school. They know that the staff like them and are there to support them. This helps pupils to manage their own emotions and behaviour. Pupils say that bullying is something that does not happen. The high numbers of staff help pupils to feel safe in this respect. Pupils know that leaders have high expectations of them and want them to do well. Pupils understand that leaders are determined that they will leave school with the skills they need to become successful citizens when they reach adulthood. Pupils typically leave school with a range of appropriate qualifications, reflecting their hard work.
