"Leaders have high aspirations for pupils, including for their achievement and for their behaviour. Most pupils arrive having missed a lot of education and they have gaps in their learning. Staff foster positive relationships with pupils. They support pupils who have previously experienced trauma with a range of effective therapeutic approaches. This helps pupils to re-engage with their education."
