This school is warm and welcoming. It has high expectations of how pupils should behave. Recently, the school has begun to take effective action to address the poor behaviour of some pupils. Most are polite, respectful and behave well. Bullying is taken seriously and not a widespread issue. Nevertheless, a minority of pupils have ongoing concerns that bullying is not addressed consistently well. This impacts negatively on how safe and happy these pupils feel at school. The school sets high expectations of what pupils can achieve through the ‘Kingsway’ of learning. Most pupils understand what is expected of them. The school has worked with the trust to improve the curriculum. Even so, in some subjects, the delivery of this curriculum does not help pupils to achieve as well as they should. Some pupils benefit from a vast array of enrichment opportunities. This helps them to develop their talents and interests. For example, pupils enjoy sports clubs such as jujitsu, football and climbing, as well as theatre club. They are proud to hold positions of responsibility. For instance, ‘student leaders’ enjoy delivering activities to promote equality and diversity. Pupils enjoy helping the school community to get along harmoniously.
