Pupils enjoy busy and interesting days at school. They access rich experiences that bring learning to life. Parents describe the school as ‘amazing’ because they see their children make such strong progress. Some of the very youngest pupils like coming to school so much that they do not want to leave at the end of the day. Warm relationships with the adults in school support pupils to feel safe and develop independence. Clear routines enable them to concentrate and behave well. One pupil summed this up by saying teachers are ‘nice, but strict’, adding that they teach pupils well. Some pupils’ behaviour is challenging as a consequence of their needs and anxieties. Staff understand this and provide skilled guidance, so that classroom learning is not disrupted. Sometimes, pupils can be unkind and fall out with each other. Occasionally, they might be hurtful. Leaders are thorough to deal with all of these concerns quickly. As pupils move through the school, they learn to be part of its community. They become interested in the environment and in each other. They enjoy visits in the locality and beyond. They meet exciting visitors, such as fire fighters. Pupils make friends who add to their enjoyment of learning and play.
