Pupils are proud to attend this nurturing school. They know that they are well cared for by school staff. Parents and carers appreciate the work of school leaders in ensuring that their children are happy and safe. Pupils enjoy the different activities that leaders provide, such as sports clubs, reading clubs and the choir. They are keen to take on extra responsibilities. Pupil chaplains lead the school prayer in assembly, while older pupils hear their younger buddies read at lunchtimes. Leaders have high expectations of pupils’ behaviour. Pupils do their best to follow the behaviour code. They try to be ready, be respectful and be safe. Those pupils who sometimes struggle to manage their own behaviour are supported well. Pupils said that they feel safe in school. They explained that in the rare instances that bullying occurs, it is swiftly resolved by staff. Leaders want the best for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). However, they have not been entirely successful in ensuring that pupils achieve as well as they should across a number of wider curriculum subjects. Curriculum development in these subjects is at a very early stage. Leaders’ curriculum thinking is unclear about how pupils’ learning can be best organised.
