Pupils want to be at Leigh and Bransford. They attend regularly and work hard. Very few are persistently absent. Leaders take appropriate steps to keep pupils safe, showing a clear understanding of potential risks and the support needed by some families. Adults’ aspirations for pupils are rightly high. Everyone experiences the full curriculum – no one misses out. Pupils enjoy making use of the outside space as part of their learning. They appreciate the chance to bring the curriculum to life, such as through visits that complement their learning about influential historical figures. In lessons and when moving around the school, pupils are polite and respectful. Most behave thoughtfully towards each other and the adults who care for them. A few pupils are concerned by boisterous and unkind behaviour that sometimes happens at playtime. Reports of bullying are dealt with appropriately, although a small number of parents and carers feel this could be done better. Pupils are prepared well for their secondary education. Nevertheless, leaders are clear about where learning could be even better. They are already taking action to improve the parts of the curriculum they have identified as needing further work.
