Pupils enjoy their time at this school. There is a helping hand and a friendly smile for everyone. From the start, in the early years, pupils learn to work together and share their ideas. Pupils understand that adults have high expectations of their behaviour throughout the day. They appreciate the clear rules and systems in place. Pupils are confident that adults will help them with any worries or concerns. This helps them to feel safe in school. Pupils know that their teachers want them to do well. They willingly ‘have a go’ at the tasks presented. In most lessons, they work hard because they understand what they have to do and how to do it. Occasionally, an extra explanation or challenge would help them to achieve even more. Breaktimes are fun, with plenty for everyone to do. Adults organise games outside so that everyone can join in. Pupils share books inside, relaxing in the cosy reading area together. There is a wide range of clubs available, both during and after the school day, such as choir, football and ‘Out and About’. These help pupils to develop their interests and skills. Pupils are proud to look after their school and each other. Older pupils act as librarians. They take on responsibilities such as house captains and ambassadors.
