Pupils flourish here. They develop a deep understanding of their role in their local community and wider British society. Pupils grow into reflective, responsible and mature young adults during their time at the school. Leaders are building an ambitious and challenging academic curriculum and working to support all staff to develop the knowledge they need to deliver this well. The commitment that pupils show towards their learning is admirable. They attend school well. In lessons, they focus on their learning and tackle challenges with enthusiasm. The school’s ethos is palpable. A culture of mutual respect between all members of the school community threads through every aspect of the school. Pupils build strong, positive relationships with their peers and develop a strong sense of belonging. Pupils described how each pupil builds on the work of the others and is supported by those around them. They commented that this makes them feel like ‘a family’. The view of one pupil echoed that of many: ‘We are each a brick in the wall of our community.’ Leaders have worked hard to nurture and maintain this strong sense of community following the COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, pupils feel safe here. If pupils have any concerns, they know whom to talk to and are confident that these will be resolved swiftly.
