School Description

Leaders are ambitious for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils feel safe due to the supportive relationships that they form with staff. They enjoy coming to school and talk fondly of Barry, the royal python. Pupils and parents and carers value the close-knit school community. Pupils typically commented: ‘We are one big family.’ Pupils live up to leaders’ high expectations. They behave well in lessons and at social times. Pupils are encouraged by sports councillors to ‘wake and shake’ each morning. This helps pupils to be ready to learn. Pupils understand what bullying is. They said that it is very rare and that staff would help if it were to happen. Pupils take part in a range of activities, such as cookery, dance and sports clubs. Leaders plan visits that strengthen the curriculum, including residential visits and fieldwork. Pupils talked in detail about the many responsibilities that they have. These include being a member of the eco-council or being a money mentor. These pupils encourage their peers to protect the environment and promote the benefits of saving money.
