South Park is a school full of hope. Relationships between staff and pupils are the cornerstone of all the school does. Pupils are willing to share their views. The staff listen to pupils and involve them in school decisions, such as the revised uniform pupil wear. In school, the pupils have a support network of trusted adults they can turn to for help and advice. The school supports local initiatives within the community. The introduction of litter bins to tidy up the streets around the school is something the pupils supported and successfully campaigned for. The school routines help the pupils to feel comfortable in their learning. When pupils struggle to control their emotions and behaviour, staff are on hand to help them calm down. The staff know the individual needs and challenges pupils face. The school celebrates positive pupil behaviours. Weekly assemblies take place. In these assemblies, staff share certificates and reward coins with pupils to recognise their efforts in and out of class. Staff also share the positive messages from the week. The school’s curriculum is aspirational. Pupils get to experience academic and vocational subjects. The wider curriculum is also broad. Pupils take part in a range of off-site activities ranging from local visits to places of interest to go-karting.
