The school has developed an exciting curriculum that brings learning to life. For example, during the inspection, pupils were preparing for a visit from a ‘knight’, dressed in full armour. The school is ambitious for all pupils to achieve high standards. Pupils do their best to meet these high expectations.

The curriculum is ambitious for all pupils. Curriculum changes provide clarity around the most important knowledge that pupils need to learn. Approaches to teaching have a positive impact on pupils’ remembering important subject content.

Staff support pupils’ well-being extremely well. Pupils of different ages play cordially together at social times. They respect each other and the staff who help them.

The school prepares pupils for life beyond the school very well. Pupils learn to stay safe in the local community and when online. Pupils develop a clear sense of right and wrong by discussing and debating topical news items.
