Pupils at this school thrive in a happy, caring and safe environment. The school’s important value of being ‘respectful’ is evident across the whole school. Pupils demonstrate high standards of behaviour. They have positive attitudes to their learning. Pupils benefit from positive relationships with their teachers. This contributes to the calm and purposeful atmosphere in the school. Pupils are adamant that bullying is exceptionally rare. They believe staff would deal with it quickly if it did occur. Parents agree. Pupils relish the opportunities for leadership roles and their personal development. The eco-warriors, for example, take pride in improving the school environment. This includes fundraising for new bins and recycling boxes, as well as planning a bottle top mosaic for the school’s garden area. Staff and pupils are very proud to be members of the school community. One parent summed up the comments of many others by saying, ‘The school has a friendly and caring atmosphere, indeed it’s like a big family of pupils, parents and teachers.’ Leaders at all levels have very high expectations of pupils and each other. This fosters the positive learning environment in which children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), can realise those expectations.
