Community is at the heart of this caring and nurturing school. The vision ‘Deeply rooted and flourishing together’ is understood across the school. For example, pupils, staff and members of the community have rallied together to raise money for the school’s swimming pool. Pupils decided on how best to do this. They chose to do a challenging sponsored walk up Pen Y Fan in the Brecon Beacons. Together, they treasured watching the sun rise as they completed this journey. Pupils can now see the fruits of their efforts. They have made a tangible difference to their school life. The school has high expectations for what pupils should achieve. Consequently, pupils work hard in lessons and they are engaged in their learning. Pupils are happy and excited to come to school. They feel they can share any worries with adults. This helps them to feel safe. Pupils benefit from a wealth of opportunities beyond the academic. Visits to Eastnor Castle, bowling and local garden centre visits are just some of the opportunities on offer to enhance the curriculum. Pupils get to learn new skills through rounders, mindfulness and painting clubs.
