Staff want pupils to do well and are ambitious for their futures. Leaders have recently redesigned the curriculum. This means that staff and pupils have a clearer understanding than before of what is expected in each phase of their education. Curriculum planning is at an early stage. Leaders have recently introduced changes to what they want pupils to know and remember in different subjects. They have done this so that pupils have a better understanding of what they learn. Pupils are typically sensible. There are times in lessons when pupils get distracted, which sometimes interrupts the teaching of the curriculum. Leaders have introduced a new system to help staff to manage classroom behaviour. Pupils respond well to this. Pupils enjoy the opportunity to take on responsibilities such as in the role of ‘Values Ambassador’. Pupils have been taught about different forms of bullying, including cyberbullying. Should they have any difficulties with other pupils, staff support them and deal with any issues quickly. Pupils enjoy coming to this school and they feel safe. Staff and governors ensure that pupils learn about other faiths and are respectful of people who have different beliefs. Every parent and carer who completed the Ofsted Parent View survey said that they would recommend the school to other parents.
