The school’s vision of ‘love to learn, learn to love’ is shared by staff and pupils alike. Pupils are taught how to be kind and polite and they consistently demonstrate these characteristics. They behave very well in class and around the school. If a pupil’s behaviour falls short of the expectations that leaders have of them, they are given effective support to improve. This results in a caring and respectful atmosphere between pupils and staff. Pupils are happy at school and they enjoy their time there. Almost all pupils belong to one of the many clubs that are offered. Pupils also benefit from a wide range of other enrichment activities, such as trips out and visitors who come into school. Leaders ensure that these are used to support what the pupils are learning in class. Staff have high expectations for what pupils can do and pupils are now achieving well. Since joining the Aletheia Academies Trust, leaders have focused on improving the curriculum and on how it is taught. Pupils are now confident in discussing what they have learned. They are also taught how to learn and are rewarded for showing their identified learning behaviours.
