Ofsted (October, 2024) stated: ‘The school expects high standards of pupils’ work and behaviour. It reminds pupils that every minute counts in meeting these standards. Pupils are rising to this challenge. They know that they attend an inclusive school that has improved rapidly. In the past, academic outcomes have been low. Now, however, the sense of ambition is abundantly clear. Lessons are engaging and focused. Pupils learn well.’

- Full, clean driver’s licence which allows driving of minibus lites.
- Willingness and ability to complete successfully the Norfolk County Council Minibus Driver Assessment and a Driver’s Occupational Health assessment prior to driving any school vehicle.

- Experience of carrying out vehicle checks and basic maintenance
- Experience of following stringent guidelines to keep oneself and others safe
