'It's a second home': Shropshire village school with its own therapy dogs is praised by Ofsted inspectors
A specialist school for children who have struggled to manage in mainstream settings has received high praise from Ofsted inspectors.
Westbury School, in Westbury near Minsterley, received an overall rating of 'Good' in its recent Ofsted inspection.
The specialist school, which caters for young people with learning difficulties, was visited by inspectors in June.
The report, published earlier this month, said pupils feel "valued, nurtured and cared for", with young people telling the inspectors: "There is a nice vibe. It is like a second home."
"Pupils learn to feel safe, trust others and get back on track with their education during their time at Westbury School," the report added.
