Children get off to a flying start in the early years. Across the school, pupils enjoy learning. Pupils especially love reading the books chosen carefully by their teachers. Some are then inspired to read the whole series, such as pupils in Year 4 after reading ‘Podkin One Ear’. Staff make sure that the learning environment is safe. Pupils are happy in school. They know they can talk to adults in school if they have a worry. Pupils say that bullying does not happen. Most pupils behave well. However, when some pupils find their learning tricky, they occasionally give up too easily. Teachers are working with these pupils to help them ‘stick at it’ and have a more positive attitude towards their work. Each year, pupils elect a school parliament with roles including ministers responsible for sport, the environment, arts and fundraising. These ministers enjoy leading activities for other pupils, including running some lunchtime clubs. Pupils know how to stay physically and mentally healthy. Pupils are kind, caring and understand that everyone is special. For example, after reading ‘The Long Walk to Water’, Year 6 pupils show empathy with refugees. Pupils strongly believe everyone should be treated fairly and with respect.
