Pupils have a great ‘can-do’ attitude in this school. They meet adversity with a smile and show remarkable resilience. They learn outdoors for physical education (PE), whatever the weather. They travel to and fro, accompanied by staff, for some lessons at a neighbouring school. When they have had to move spaces to accommodate external events, they just get on with it. This is because they want to learn, do well and believe strongly in what they can do if they work as a team. Pupils think highly of their teachers. They know teachers have high expectations and they rise to these. Many appreciate the time that teachers give. This may be providing extra tuition after school or sleeping in a tent on a weekend so pupils can complete their hiking expeditions. Pupils are proud of how they have helped to shape the new school, designing its badge and contributing their ideas on how it should run. Partially due to its small size, pupils know each other well. They have strong bonds of friendship that stretch across year groups. As a result, there is a convivial atmosphere at the school. Pupils demonstrate good-natured behaviour. They politely wait, taking turns to go up and down the narrow stairwells.
