[They] experience a rich and varied learning experience both in and out of lessons. This is a community where, as staff and pupils proudly state, ‘better never stops’ ... Pupils are attentive and actively involved in making choices about their learning ... Parents are hugely appreciative of what the leaders and all the staff do to enable their children to flourish … [One] said, ‘This is such a great community school.
