“Red Kite School Reflect on Action Packed First Year

Since opening in September, the fun at Red Kite School has not stopped. From enlightening trips including museum visits, a Silverstone STEM careers event, local walks and games in the park, to coffee mornings, bake-offs, a gardening club and drama workshops onsite, pupils have had lots of ways to explore their unique interests.

Assistant Headteacher, Lucy Metcalfe, shared ‘Alongside this packed agenda, we’ve developed sensory rooms to deliver a light and calming space, and focused on improving our curriculum so that every child can enjoy school. Our team has done a huge amount of work this year, which is reflected in our thriving, brilliant community, with pupils making great progress.’”

Red Kite’s Specialist setting has offered X everything that she needs to help her maintain being regulated.

Your execution in the way you deliver her individual special needs is precise. You notice everything about her,

for example if she likes kinetic sand you have offered to get her favourite colour, you have given her choices

and this has had a positive effect her eating. She now likes to eat breakfast at home as you offered so many

alternatives, she felt comfortable enough to try something new. You do not pressure her and this had made

her flourish. I can see that she will be doing many amazing things at this school. You have also made me as a

parent very welcome, all your staff that I have met are very welcoming and most importantly your interested

and you listen to us…

I absolutely love working here.

X’s grandfather said during our network meeting yesterday: ‘X has come along way this year and this is all down to school, she would not be where she is now if it was not for Red Kite’

”

“

X loved her visit and is so excited to start on Monday (which is nothing short of a miracle!)

”

“

Thank you so much for these reports it’s so lovely to get a positive report.

X is loving being at Red kite. We were talking on the way home from school today I said that I thinks he’s finally found his place, X agreed and said it was the best school he’s ever been to.

Thank you and all the staff for making X feel so comfortable and happy at school!

”

“

we continue to be delighted with
X’s progress at Red Kite and have nothing but praise for you and
your staff in what you are doing for her.

”

“

Staff welcome pupils warmly each morning in this nurturing and supportive school. The
school is a calm, educational and therapeutic environment in which pupils feel they belong.
Many pupils have had a difficult and unsettled time in education before joining the school. As
a result, pupils typically arrive with negative views of learning and poor self-esteem. The
school helps them to get back on track. Pupils make friends, enjoy their learning and
gradually grow in confidence.
