Pupils are kept safe. They appreciate the positive working relationships that they have with adults in this school. This helps them to feel secure. Although pupils said that bullying does occasionally happen, they are clear that staff respond quickly to any concerns that they raise. Most pupils do their best to demonstrate the behaviour and attitudes that leaders and staff expect. These behaviours are based on the ‘R-Trails’ of respect, teamwork, resilience, ambition, integrity, leadership and self-belief. Pupils like that they receive certificates and badges when they display these behaviours. They feel that behaviour is improving because these expectations are made clear. However, in some lessons, pupils’ behaviour interrupts learning. Leaders want every pupil to succeed. The curriculum has been designed with the goal of ensuring that pupils learn and remember more over time. However, teachers do not focus sufficiently on the most important concepts that pupils need to know. They do not check well enough what pupils have already learned and understood. Some pupils take part in different extra-curricular activities. These include a range of sports clubs, the ‘Harmony Army’ school choir, Spanish and beekeeping. Pupils have leadership opportunities in the school, for example to become house captains.
