School Description

Leaders have created a warm and welcoming place. Pupils enjoy attending school. They care about each other and form positive relationships with their peers and adults. There is a sense of calm all around school. Pupils feel safe and happy and make the most of the opportunities they are given. Pupils thrive in this environment. Pupils understand what bullying is; they know that there can be cyber-, emotional and physical bullying. However, it is not something that happens at school. Pupils talk fondly about the staff and say that staff are always there to help them out if there is a problem. If pupils have a worry or a concern, they are happy to chat to staff and feel that they get good support. A pupil commented, ‘Teachers make you feel welcome, they push you hard, but not too hard; they care about their students.’ This typified pupils’ views. Pupils have a say in what happens in school and their own education. Many pupils know what targets they have on their plans, and if they do not, they know that they can access and read them at any time. The school council is run by pupils who have been voted in from each class. Pupils enjoy being part of decision-making in school, for example in contributing to summer festival ideas and sharing events with other schools.
