Pupils and their families love this school which has high expectations of what pupils can do. Pupils work hard to meet these expectations and many achieve very positive outcomes. Pupils hear from a range of visitors, including former pupils, about the different career options available to them. Pupils behave extremely well. They are polite and welcoming to visitors. In the early years, children learn the habits of positive behaviour that will help them succeed in life. Each playground is full of the sound of laughter and pupils feel safe in school. Learning the principles of honesty, compassion and respect are of high importance here. Pupils are encouraged to think about others and make a positive contribution to their local community. The school helps pupils to understand fundamental British values. For example, pupils in Year 7 and 8 organised a mock election. The school does not teach some of the protected characteristics as set out in the Equality Act 2010. Therefore, pupils’ have a limited understanding of the full variety of people in modern Britain. Primary-aged pupils do not learn how to stay safe online and secondary-aged pupils do not have an age-appropriate understanding of sexual harassment and consent.
