Pupils are respectful and polite towards each other and their teachers. Pupils rarely behave unkindly towards each other. Bullying does not happen often because staff are quick to notice and resolve any issues if pupils are not getting on. Pupils feel safe and are kept safe. They turn to trusted staff should they need help to resolve any problems that may arise. However, leaders have not ensured that the school premises are kept clean and tidy. Prior to the inspection, they had not identified and dealt with health and safety risks, such as from combustible materials that create fire hazards. Pupils enjoy taking on responsibilities, such as running cookery stalls at healthyeating exhibitions. Pupils in Year 9 were excited about planning a walking tour in the Lake District. Through their Jewish studies and personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE), pupils take part in activities to promote their social skills and boost their self-esteem. Pupils are enthusiastic about the subjects and activities that they enjoy in school. However, leaders do not have high enough expectations for all that pupils can achieve. Pupils’ learning in scientific subjects is restricted, which limits their future options and wider personal development. Pupils have very limited opportunities to become familiar with, and gain an appreciation of, faiths and cultures beyond their own community.
