Nevertheless, in some subjects, the school’s expectations of what pupils can achieve are not high enough. Some pupils do not achieve as well as they should. The school has high expectations of pupils’ conduct. However, some pupils do not behave as well as they should in lessons and at social times. This sometimes disrupts the learning of their peers. Nevertheless, children in the early years benefit from consistent routines and clear expectations. This prepares these children well for the demands of Year 1. Parents and carers hold positive views of the school. They particularly praised the effortless way that the youngest children settle into the early years. Pupils learn about the importance of treating everybody with respect. However, there are few opportunities for pupils to develop their talents and interests or to take on roles of responsibility within the school.
