Pupils are proud and happy to be members of this warm and friendly school. They value being part of the close school community where newcomers quickly make friends. Pupils know and live out the school’s values through their positive behaviour across the school. They understand the importance of working together and willingly help others when they can. This is evident when pupils invite others to join their games at playtime. The school’s ambition is for every pupil to achieve the very best they can. Pupils respond well to the encouragement of staff. In lessons, this helps them to tackle more challenging learning with greater confidence. Pupils typically complete learning activities purposefully. They act quickly to make improvements that are identified by teachers. This positive learning ethos supports all pupils to learn well. Pupils value the range of wider opportunities provided by the school. They happily share the experiences gained through trips and residentials. The school champions pupils’ successes. They enjoy receiving ‘house points’ for their effort and day-to-day achievements. Each week, pupils keenly anticipate the celebration assembly to find out whether their ‘house’ leads the competition. This recognition supports pupils to feel valued.
