Leaders have created a well-structured curriculum...

“Leaders have created a well-structured curriculum. This sets high expectations for all pupils, so that they achieve well. Leaders have thought carefully about how the curriculum in different subjects builds on what pupils already know. For example, in mathematics, leaders have made sure that the new learning pupils encounter builds upon the things they already know. Pupils make strong progress as a result.”

“Leaders are ambitious for pupils, including those pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Pupils are attentive and try their best in lessons. Experienced staff support pupils’ well-being effectively. Pupils talk with enthusiasm about the regular educational visits offered by the school. In particular, pupils value the annual overnight residential that happens in Year 6, as this is an opportunity to further develop relationships with their teachers and friends.”

Pupils get on well with each other...

“Pupils get on well with each other. They say they feel safe in school and that bullying is rare. When it does happen, adults deal with it quickly and effectively. Leaders aim to develop the individual character of each pupil. They encourage pupils to take on leadership responsibilities in school. For example, pupils have joined groups that have helped their peers to feel safe, to look after the environment and to access more equipment at playtimes. Pupils speak passionately about the many opportunities to help, compete and represent the school in different sports.”
