Pupils greet everyone with a warm welcome to this friendly, inclusive and forwardthinking school. Pastoral care and well-being are valued highly, ensuring that pupils feel cared for, joyful and safe. Parents say that staff ‘go above and beyond to ensure that pupils are happy and fulfilled’. This is seen in cheerful playtimes, calm classrooms and pupils’ active involvement in a rich offer of opportunities beyond the academic. Pupils proudly represent the school in a wide range of experiences. They learn to be aspirational through careers events and links with businesses and universities. The school is passionate that pupils see no limits to their potential. Outdoor education, residential activity weeks, trips and visits enrich pupils’ lives beyond the classrooms. Behaviour starts well in early years, where high expectations are established for all. Conduct throughout the school is positive, so learning time is never lost. This helps pupils to achieve well across the curriculum. Trustees and leaders are driving innovative curriculum developments. Technology is harnessed to enable rich learning opportunities for all. Every pupil has their own device, accessing software to help them with their learning. This approach benefits all, particularly pupils who are disadvantaged, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
