This is a warm and welcoming place. Pupils talk confidently about the support they receive from trusted adults. They know that staff will help them with any worries they may have. Relationships across the school are positive and respectful. This helps pupils to feel safe and enjoy school. The school has high expectations for pupils. Overall, pupils achieve well. They work hard in lessons and leave the school well prepared for the next stage in their education. Despite this, the quality of education that children receive in the early years is not yet good. This means that some children are not well prepared for Year 1. The school has put in place a new behaviour approach. This makes clear the expectations for how pupils behave. Pupils respond well to this. They understand the school rules and happily follow them. This starts in the pre-school where children settle to new routines quickly. Pupils enjoy a range of clubs such as choir, multi-sports and colouring. They value the opportunities to become house captains and members of the school council. Pupils understand how these roles develop their independence and give them the skills they need to look after others.
