Pupils at this school feel happy and safe. Many told inspectors that they ‘love their school’ and that their teachers ‘know them well and care about them’. They trust their teachers to take any worries they have seriously and say that bullying, if it did occur, would be dealt with quickly. They are proud of their school and describe it as a ‘safe place for all, whatever their age, race or gender’. Pupils behave well. They understand the school rules and think they are fair. They like that their teachers help them to redeem themselves should their behaviour not meet the high standards set. They appreciate the rewards they receive. There are many opportunities to get involved in the local community. Recently, for example, pupils visited a local care home. They provided gifts to residents who had to spend Christmas alone and performed a nativity. Leaders want to help broaden pupils’ knowledge and experiences outside of the curriculum and beyond Bakewell. The curriculum is not well planned in all subjects. Pupils do not gain the rich knowledge and skills that they should across the full range of subjects.
