CLICK HERE OFSTED Please click on the link for more information. CLICK HERE What they say about us Leaders and staff have the very highest expectations for all their pupils. They work hard to address pupils’ needs through the personalisation of a broad, innovative and coherently planned curriculum. Each pupil is set clear and achievable targets called ‘learning intentions’. These are short-term targets that enable pupils to reach the long-term goals set out in their education, health and care (EHC) plans. OFSTED Inspector Tuke School is a very special place. Pupils reach personalised and ambitious goals because of the school’s support. Every part of school life is designed around the school’s high expectations to meet the needs of individual pupils. For example, every pupil is able to communicate because staff use carefully selected signs, symbols and objects of reference. OFSTED Inspector Governors and leaders recognise and value the important role played by every member of staff. Leaders are proactive in addressing the challenges of recruiting suitably qualified teachers. There is also a leadership programme in place to develop staff expertise further. OFSTED Inspector A strength of this school is the close working relationship between teachers, support staff and pupils. Staff know their pupils extremely well and provide consistent and individualised approaches to support exemplary behaviour. Classrooms are purposeful and calm, which consistently encourages pupils’ learning. OFSTED Inspector Accreditations Do you have a question? If yes, contact our team here. CLICK HERE
