This well-led school serves its community well. Pupils are kept safe and always have someone to turn to if they have any problems. Pastoral support is excellent. Pupils usually listen to their teachers. They get on well with one another, but there is some lively behaviour. This is usually good-natured because pupils enjoy being at school. On occasions, some pupils upset other pupils, so adults step in to help. If bullying happens, pupils report it and adults work to stop it. Leaders are ambitious for everyone to do well in all aspects of school life. There is great team spirit and a huge sense of loyalty to the school from pupils and staff. Pupils learn to take responsibility by helping out with jobs and representing the school at events. There are many clubs that they can go to and take-up rates are high. Pupils do a lot of physical education (PE) and achieve very well in different sports. English and mathematics are planned well and taught well every day. In both of these subjects, standards are rising, but could be even higher. In other subjects, work is planned out carefully, but science and history are not taught as successfully as they could be.
