Pupils enjoy attending this school. They are polite, enthusiastic and welcoming. Pupils feel safe and happy because of the positive relationships they form with each other and with the caring staff. As one pupil said, ‘we really are like a family.’ Parents agree. Pupils understand what bullying is, including how it can happen online. If it happens, staff quickly resolve it. Pupils behave well and play cooperatively with their friends. However, there is variability in how well the curriculum is delivered, and teachers’ expectations are sometimes too low. Consequently, pupils do not always remember important knowledge they have been taught or pay the attention that they should in lessons. This means that they do not make the progress that they should. Curriculum leaders have recently started to receive the support they need to help them check how well the curriculum is delivered. As a result, leaders have identified the most important training that staff need. Pupils enjoy taking on extra responsibilities. Older pupils enjoy helping their younger friends during social times. They raise money for others, such as victims of the Turkish earthquake. Pupils are accepting and curious about the wide range of faiths and cultures in the world and are in the early stages of learning about them.
