What did Ofsted say?

“Treating each pupil as an individual is something that The Vyne does well. Leaders and staff take time to understand each pupil’s needs so that they can provide exactly the right support. This includes pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Those who are part of the school’s specially resourced provision for pupils with SEND (specially resourced provision) are fully included in all parts of school life.”


“At the heart of The Vyne is an ambition for all pupils to succeed. This ambition is equally high for pupils with SEND.” 

What did the SEN HIAS report say about pupil feedback? 

Pupils are overwhelmingly positive about the school and the support they receive to learn, to take part and to be safe in school. They say SEND staff encourage them to be as independent as they can be, and they appreciate this.


Without exception pupils say that they trust all adults in the school, and they can go to anyone for help and support. While individuals do have closer relationships or attachments to some adults, they agree that all adults are approachable and supportive.
