Everyone here talks about how the school’s values underpin every aspect of school life. Pupils behave very well. The school is a calm, purposeful environment, where pupils get off to a flying start in their education. They are thoughtful, courteous and excited about being here. Both in class and around the school, pupils display mature, confident behaviours. In class, they show exemplary attitudes towards their learning. Pupils achieve well across the curriculum and always give their best. Staff have high expectations of pupils, and pupils have high expectations of themselves. Adults are caring and want the best for all pupils. This helps create a culture where positive relationships pervade. Pupils feel safe and know that adults will help them if they have any worries.
