School Description

Pupils, including children in the early years, value being part of this compassionate school community. They forge strong relationships with staff and their peers. This makes pupils happy to come to school. Pupils know that leaders have high expectations for their behaviour. They meet these expectations by treating others with respect and kindness. Bullying is taken seriously by leaders and dealt with quickly. Leaders’ actions, along with the support from the wellbeing ambassadors, help pupils to feel safe. Leaders have high aspirations for all pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils are eager to learn and engage well in lessons. Pupils achieve well across most subjects. Pupils benefit from a wide range of opportunities beyond the classroom. The pupil rotary club organises fundraising events for the charities that they have chosen to support. This encourages pupils to become empathetic to others less fortunate than themselves. Pupils also take part in an end-of-year theatre production and choir performance. This builds pupils’ confidence and communication skills. Pupils are supported with their physical health and mental well-being. They regularly take part in sports clubs and competitions.
