Nearly all pupils demonstrate a very caring, compassionate and supportive attitude towards each other and to the adults around them … They form constructive friendships, particularly as part of their house family … They contribute extensively to school life … Participation in the wide-ranging club programme provides many pupils with the opportunity to develop their resilience, creativity and ability to take risks.”
