St Mary’s and St Peter’s Catholic Primary School is an oasis at the heart of the community. Diversity is welcomed and celebrated. Pupils learn about different world religions in regular faith weeks. Leaders have high expectations for all pupils. Leaders aim for pupils to ‘keep up not catch up’. Pupils are happy. They thrive in this inclusive and nurturing environment. Leaders develop each pupil’s character by teaching them the school values. Pupils know and understand these values. They recognise and reward their peers for making the right choices. Older pupils are proud to be workforce monitors and contribute to the wider school life. ‘Being kind’ underpins all that pupils do. If pupils are unkind to each other, they are supported to reflect on how their behaviour has made others feel. Pupils have a voice and are encouraged to use it. This helps everyone feel valued, safe and happy. Bullying is rare. When it does happen, leaders take swift action. Kind and caring relationships exist between pupils and adults. Pupils trust that adults will help them to deal with any worries quickly. Parents who spoke with inspectors were happy with how leaders support their children. They said their children feel safe.
