The school has high expectations for pupils. Over the last few years, it has started to cater for pupils with a wider range of special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The school has mainly adapted well to this change. Pupils achieve well, are happy in school and are considerate of each other’s uniqueness. Pupils work well together and support each other in lessons. Older pupils help to look after younger pupils during breaktimes and lunchtimes. The annual Christmas concert is a whole-school production in which all pupils take part. The whole school community enjoys this event. Pupils are proud of the work that they do to support their local community. For example, they pack food parcels to support a local food bank. Pupils also join the local community to help keep a local beach clean. At times, some pupils do not behave as well as they could. Sometimes, the behaviour of others makes some pupils feel unsafe. A minority of pupils also said that the school does not do enough to stop bullying.
