Pupils are proud of, and enjoy coming to, their school. The staff are supportive and caring. Pupils respect their teachers and think that learning is important. This includes their lessons and the wealth of other opportunities to enrich their learning. For example, pupils learn how to be responsible for animals’ welfare. They look after the school’s pigs, goats, chickens and guinea pigs. The on-site forest school gives all pupils exciting opportunities to learn outdoors. When asked about their favourite things, some pupils said the sports clubs, some said they enjoyed art and some said mathematics. Pupils are enthusiastic about their learning. A younger pupil proudly told the inspector, ‘I’m scientist of the week!’ Leaders believe it is important to promote pupils as ‘future leaders’. Staff prepare pupils well for each new stage of their education. Pupils are positive and confident and have excellent manners. Staff have high expectations of behaviour and pupils behave well at all times of the day. Pupils sometimes lose concentration when teaching does not build well enough on what they already know and can do. Pupils say they are kept safe and that bullying is very rare. They are very confident that staff will sort out any problems or worries should they arise.
