Special Needs
Provision for pupils who have special educational needs (SEN) and/or disabilities, or who speak English as an additional language, is well led, and funding for this group of pupils is used effectively. The deputy principal supports learning across the school well so that pupils who have SEN and/or disabilities, or who speak English as an additional language, make good progress from their starting points. Intervention strategies and staff deployment have a positive impact on these pupils’ progress. Ofsted, Feb 2018
