Pupils love coming to this small village school. They thrive socially and feel safe in this nurturing environment where everyone is included. There is a real sense of belonging and being a part of a community. Adults know every pupil well. Relationships are strong and pupils know adults will help them if they have any worries. Leaders and governors ensure pupils have many opportunities to develop their personal skills. Pupils particularly enjoy working in the nearby woods and learning about the natural world. They develop important skills, such as teamwork and how to use tools safely. Pupils build on these skills in woodwork club and in their sports teams. Pupils enjoy playing with their friends. Incidents of bullying are rare. Pupils know an adult would listen and sort out any such problems. In lessons, pupils sometimes lose concentration and focus. This stops their learning. Leaders ensure that pupils experience a broad curriculum. However, pupils in Year 1 and Year 2 do not learn as well as they should. This is because in some subjects, leaders have not identified the key knowledge that they want pupils to learn precisely enough.
