We are an OUTSTANDING school!

Ofsted (May 2024) stated that St. Giles is an Outstanding school because:

 

  • St Giles’ Spencer Academy provides an exceptional education for its pupils and is ambitious for all who attend this caring school. Relationships between pupils and adults are kind and respectful.

  • At the heart of the school’s work is the strong focus on communication and developing independence. Through effective communication, staff develop warm relationships with pupils based on high levels of trust. Pupils know staff will help them. As a result, pupils are happy and feel safe.

  • Staff have a profound understanding of pupils’ unique and individual needs. Pupils learn to recognise when they need to regulate their behaviour through the careful support of staff. Staff help pupils to make the right choices. As a result, there is rarely any disruption to pupils’ learning.

  • Staff have a strong commitment to ensuring that pupils receive highly aspirational learning. Expectations for their achievements are high, no matter what pathway they follow.

  • Pupils flourish socially and academically. There is a wide range of enrichment opportunities for pupils to get involved with. They particularly enjoy taking part in forest school, soft play and yoga. Pupils enjoy positions of responsibility, such as being school councillors and helping with snack time.
