Pupils at Telford Junior are polite and articulate. They come to school keen and ready to learn. Pupils experience a curriculum that gives them the potential to achieve and succeed. Learning is brought to life through a range of experiences throughout their time at the school. They attend trips to the Think Tank, the Houses of Parliament and the Royal Shakespeare Company. Pupils enjoy these opportunities. Leaders, including those responsible for governance, have high ambitions for the pupils at Telford Junior. However, they recognise that some pupils could achieve even more. The school’s rules: ‘Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Ready’ are based on their twelve values. Pupils behave well in lessons. They know what they should and should not do. They told inspectors that they feel very safe and that there are adults to help them if there are any problems. They say there are disagreements between friends but bullying is rare and that staff help sort this out quickly, if it does happen. Pupils appreciate that they have a range of clubs and activities available to them. They enjoy the chance to attend residential trips, choir, steel pans, coding, guitar, football, rowing and cooking. As one pupil said, There are so many. We do everything.’
