Pupils do not receive an acceptable standard of education. They do not learn enough in many subjects. The curriculum lacks ambition and does not give pupils the essential knowledge they need to be successful. Consequently, pupils have considerable gaps in their knowledge and are not well prepared for the next stage in their education. Despite this, pupils enjoy coming to school and feel safe. They have positive relationships with the adults in school. They know that adults are there to help them if they have a concern. Pupils are respectful towards adults and each other. Older pupils enjoy their role as ‘Young Leaders’ and support younger pupils with play during social times. Pupils say that behaviour is better since the introduction of the new system. They understand the rewards and sanctions well and appreciate the headteacher’s stickers when they work hard. Pupils’ conduct is generally calm in the classrooms, corridors and lunch hall. However, when learning does not match pupils’ needs well enough, they become disengaged and lose focus. Pupils understand the importance of inclusion. They know that everyone is different and say that they would welcome anyone into their school.
