School Description

Pupils say that they enjoy their learning. However, pupils are not learning well in some subjects. They are not always supported to gain the knowledge they need. Pupils often do not have the opportunities to practise what they learn. Pupils struggle to recall what they have been taught. Pupils mostly behave well around the school. Pupils play well together at breaktimes and lunchtimes. However, some pupils are frustrated when other pupils’ behaviour in class disrupts their learning. Pupils enjoy the range of sports clubs and activities. As they get older, pupils take on responsibilities in school, such as reading with the younger pupils. Pupils feel that staff care about them. Parents appreciate the extra support the school provides to families. Some pupils receive help from a school counsellor as part of the pastoral support team the school has set up. Most pupils say that they feel safe. Pupils know what bullying is and say that when this happens in school it is dealt with quickly by teachers.
