Bolnore School is a hive of activity. Pupils work hard and have fun in this bright, attractive school. They are proud of their work, which is displayed with care throughout the school. Pupils of all ages told us that they enjoy school. They told us that adults trust them to do their best, and most do so. The school’s curriculum gives pupils rich experiences of learning. Trips, visitors and activities help to bring learning to life. For example, a recent trip to a castle helped pupils in Year 1 to learn about 1066 and life in Norman castles. Some of the older pupils spoke enthusiastically about some of the things they have learned in previous years, such as their study of The Great Fire of London and Shackleton’s expedition to the Antarctic. Pupils usually behave well. They play together sensibly during playtimes and lunchtimes. Pupils are polite and enjoy chatting to their friends while eating lunch. The older pupils take good care of the youngest pupils in the playground. Pupils feel safe in school. They told us that they have no concerns about bullying and that their teachers sort out any problems quickly.
