Pupils enjoy attending this school. There is an inclusive ethos that celebrates diversity and promotes equality. Pupils and staff are especially proud of this. One parent aptly summed up that this school provides ‘a safe, welcoming, thriving environment for both children and parents to be part of’. The school’s motto encourages pupils to take ‘PRIDE in learning together’. Pupils have good attitudes to learning in lessons. They talk about how they ‘persevere’ with their work and show ‘resilience’ when it is challenging. They try hard to be ‘independent’ and ignore ‘distractions’. They ‘explain’ their learning with great enthusiasm. Pupils are proud to complete pledges that demonstrate these values. Clear and consistently high expectations support pupils to behave well. Staff know pupils well and are supportive role models. They help pupils who find managing their behaviour difficult to regulate their emotions. This creates a calm and orderly environment for pupils to learn in. Over the last few years, the school’s curriculum has been reviewed. It is well designed and ambitious for pupils. It is taught effectively and pupils learn well. Everyone has high expectations of what pupils can achieve. Pupils’ overall achievement is improving considerably as a result.
