The school fosters a strong sense of belonging for pupils. This helps to create an inclusive environment where pupils and staff feel valued. The mission to empower pupils to have a bright future is at the heart of the school. This begins in the nursery, where children are encouraged to be curious and inquisitive. Playtimes are happy occasions. Pupils love to play together and share equipment. Adults help them to organise games and take turns using the resources available. Pupils understand the school rules and follow these diligently on the playground. They feel secure that staff will help them to resolve any fallings-out. Pupils are supported well to understand how to stay safe. They eagerly discuss the ways to keep safe in different scenarios, such as when crossing the road, using computers and what to do if they hear a fire alarm. Pupils enjoy the trips they attend, which have been carefully linked to what they are learning in class. The school’s revised curriculum is helping to address previous weaknesses in how well pupils achieved in the past.
