School Description

Pupils told inspectors that they feel happy and safe in school. They are very proud to be a member of the school community. Pupils know that they can speak to any member of staff if they are worried or concerned about anything. Pupils are motivated to work hard because they enjoy their learning. They respond positively to the high expectations that staff have of their learning and behaviour. Pupils told inspectors that life in school is ‘calm and peaceful’ and that, on the rare occasions that bullying happens, it is always dealt with swiftly. Pupils understand what is means to be a positive member of British society. They are expected to be upstanding, considerate citizens in school and the wider community. Pupils have many opportunities to rise to these expectations as head pupils, members of the ‘Stars Leadership Team’, the school council and as play leaders. Pupils raise funds for various good causes. The school choir regularly performs at various events in the local library, a residential care home and St. John’s Church. Pupils’ determination to succeed, and their increasing resilience when learning, means that they achieve well across the curriculum.
