Pupils and staff are incredibly proud to be part of this school. Members of ‘Team Oughty’ champion one another and recognise each other’s strengths. This contributes towards an environment where success is both celebrated and rewarded. Pupils are eager to come into school and live up to the motto of ‘aspiring to greater heights’ by rising to the high expectations that the school has of their achievement. The school is committed to promoting pupils’ well-being. It expects pupils to treat one another in a way that they would like to be treated themselves. Pupils behave exceptionally well in school. They listen attentively in lessons. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), form very positive relationships with staff. They trust that staff will help them with any concerns they may have. This helps pupils to feel happy at school. Pupils benefit from an extremely well-thought-out set of experiences which help them to understand the wider world. Pupils take their responsibilities seriously. They know it is up to them to make a difference in society. Pupils demonstrate this by engaging with older generations when they help out at the school’s weekly local luncheon group.
