This is a school where everyone knows each other. Leaders have built a close-knit community. Strong relationships between staff and pupils mean that pupils feel safe and well cared for. Pupils say that bullying is not tolerated. They are confident that staff will sort it out if it happens. Pupils told inspectors that they can speak to staff and ‘buddies’ if they have any worries or concerns. Pupils work hard in lessons and want to achieve well. They have positive attitudes to their learning. Pupils take pride in their work. The vast majority of pupils behave very well. They like the rewards they receive for good behaviour. Pupils are polite, courteous and respectful. They happily say ‘Good morning’ while holding doors open for each other and adults. Since the last inspection, the quality of education that pupils receive has declined. Pupils have not achieved as well as they should in a range of subjects, including reading, despite the good start in the early years. The new headteacher and other leaders are making the right changes to improve the school’s curriculum. Parents and carers welcome the improvements. Typically, they describe the school as ‘getting better’. They appreciate being included in the life of the school more recently. Leaders are determined to provide opportunities that will broaden pupils’ horizons. Pupils engage in constructive debates. During the inspection, Year 6 pupils enthusiastically debated topical issues such as climate change. Pupils appreciate the wide range of after-school clubs such as football, choir, steel pans and gymnastics. All of these are well attended.
