Pupils speak passionately about their school. They demonstrate great pride when sharing information about their learning and other school activities. Pupils are aware of what it means to be a good citizen. They understand how to be kind and treat others with respect. This is evident in the quality of relationships that exist in school, both in and out of the classroom. One pupil said, ‘The kindness you give out in the world will come back to you.’ Pupils say they feel safe in school. They understand how to stay safe online. Pupils are aware of the different types of bullying. They are in no doubt that there are adults in school who will help them if they have any worries. However, staff do not have an appropriate understanding of safeguarding systems and processes in school. This puts pupils’ safety at risk. All staff have high expectations for pupils’ behaviour both inside and outside of the classroom. As a result, pupils behave well. There are very few incidents of disruption to learning. Pupils are interested in their lessons and concentrate well. Curriculum plans enable pupils to study a range of topics. However, in subjects other than English and mathematics, leaders have not ensured that skills and knowledge are sequenced carefully enough to build upon pupils’ prior learning. Consequently, pupils do not achieve as well as they should across the curriculum.
