This is a friendly and happy school. Pupils are safe and develop positive attitudes to learning. They enjoy school and the opportunities provided to develop new skills, such as learning to play the guitar. Leaders, governors and staff care deeply about pupils. They want the best for them. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) get a good deal. Rigorous systems are in place to ensure that any specialist support needed is accessed quickly. Most pupils behave well. They are very clear about what happens if someone is unkind or does not behave as they should. Staff encourage and support pupils to resolve their disputes through discussion. Pupils know the difference between bullying and ‘falling outs’. They say that adults deal quickly with any problems they report. Staff have worked hard and been successful in gaining many national and prestigious awards including in art, physical education, and inclusion of pupils. These awards recognise that all pupils get a rich and varied programme of activities at school. The headteacher has created a strong and united staff team. Governors are dedicated and committed. They make sure that teachers and leaders are well supported and have a good work-life balance.
