What the school inspection says

“The school is a highly purposeful and happy place to be. Pupils interact very pleasantly with one another around the school. At lunch, some pupils share conversation using their tablets, some play football and others sit out on the grass chatting. Pupils treat each other with the highest levels of respect and tolerance … Pupils produce exceptional work and attain extremely well because they benefit from highly skilled and expert teaching. They develop a complex and deep understanding of the subjects they learn … Pupils benefit from a wealth of wider opportunities that promote personal development. These include choirs, exchange visits, regular sporting fixtures and competitions and school productions. Pupils with special education needs and/or disabilities (Send) and disadvantaged pupils access all these opportunities equally.”
