Pupils benefit from attending this inclusive and exceptional school. They recognise the high expectations leaders have for them and constantly strive to meet them. Pupils are highly motivated and ambitious to achieve as much as possible. The support for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), is excellent and closely targeted to the individual needs of each pupil. Pupils at St Paul’s Catholic College are truly ‘known and loved’. Pupils celebrate all forms of difference and show respect and genuine kindness to each other. They feel extremely safe expressing their views and individuality and do so with total confidence. Bullying in all its forms is not tolerated in the school and is extremely rare. Pupils are completely reassured that adults in the school take swift and effective action, as needed, to keep them safe. Interactions between pupils and staff are positive and remarkably warm. The school environment is calm and purposeful, and pupils behave exceptionally well. Pupils promote positive behaviour by modelling the high expectations that leaders have for them. Through roles such as mental health ambassadors and ‘guardian angels’, pupils make a positive and tangible contribution to supporting the well-being of others.
