This school has made big strides forward since the headteacher started in April 2018. Because staff have much higher expectations of pupils, there are better outcomes across the school. Pupils enjoy coming to school and like learning new things. They feel well supported by their teachers and friends. One boy said, ‘Teachers make pupils happy, because they make learning fun.’ Pupils love the various trips they go on, locally and further afield. Behaviour has improved in the school and is now good. Teachers know how to help pupils behave well and how to deal with any misbehaviour in class. The school’s systems of rewards and sanctions work well. Pupils feel safe from bullying. They understand it but say that it hardly ever happens. When it does, someone reports it and staff sort it out quickly. All pupils know that if they come to school anxious or worried, there is always an understanding adult to turn to. Staff are well trained and skilled in listening to pupils. They talk through any concerns that pupils might have.
