The school’s ethos of ‘Together we respect, we inspire, we achieve’ is realised from Reception to Year 6. Pupils like school and enjoy learning. There are warm relationships between staff and pupils. Older pupils are positive role models for younger children. One pupil described it as ‘a school where it is easy to make friends’. The school supports pupils to behave well. Pupils who need additional support with their behaviour get the help they require. They feel safe at school and know who their trusted adults are. Pupils understand what bullying is and how to report any concerns should they arise. They trust that staff will listen to any worries they have. Leaders and staff are ambitious for pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils live up to these expectations. They are keen to learn and work hard. Leaders recognise that they are on a journey to ensure that all pupils consistently achieve securely across all subjects by the end of key stage 2. The school prioritises providing a range of experiences for pupils, such as the residential trip to Hindleap Warren. Pupils talk about such events with excitement and enthusiasm. Pupils also enjoy leadership opportunities, such as being a school councillor or play leader.
