Pupils achieve well at Harewood Primary School. Sitting at the very heart of the community it serves, the school is warm and welcoming. Pupils build strong, trusting relationships with staff, who provide support and encouragement in equal measure. Parents are overwhelmingly positive about the work of the school. Pupils appreciate the range of clubs on offer to nurture and develop their talents. These include choir, fun club, arts and crafts, gardening and family tennis. The school makes a pledge to pupils that by the time they leave, they will have had the opportunity to go on a set of core visits. This includes trips to a farm, a woodland, the seaside, a city, a museum and an art gallery. Year 6 pupils are currently excited about preparations for the talent show. Pupils say that the school’s offer helps them to build the confidence and self-belief they need in order to succeed. This ‘can-do’ approach runs through the culture of the school. The school has high expectations of pupils’ behaviour. For the most part, these expectations are met. Pupils are unfailingly courteous and polite to adults. Classrooms are calm, and low-level disruption is rare. However, pupils explained that some pupils frequently use inappropriate and derogatory language. Pupils felt that this was ‘mostly okay because people were only doing it as a joke’. While confident that it would be dealt with if reported, pupils did not understand the unacceptable nature of such conduct, regardless of circumstance.
