Pupils are happy and enjoy coming to school. They are well-behaved and welcoming towards visitors. Pupils form strong and meaningful relationships with staff and with each other. Pupils’ hard work and considerate behaviour help to ensure that the school is calm and purposeful. Pupils learn about safe and appropriate personal relationships, as well as how to maintain their mental and physical health. The school expects pupils to achieve highly. In order to achieve this ambition, it has ensured that a well-designed curriculum is now in place for most subjects. However, staff do not deliver this curriculum consistently well. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), do not achieve as well as they should in some subjects. Pupils are proud of the different charitable and community events in which they participate. Often, they are responsible for organising such events. For instance, they support a local foodbank and they have sought the views of members of the community on traffic-calming measures. These experiences provide pupils with the skills that they need to become responsible and active citizens. Pupils enjoy visits to places of interest that help to bring the curriculum to life. For example, visits to museums help pupils to better understand their learning in history. Year 6 pupils look forward to their annual residential learning experience.
