“There is a strong emphasis on giving pupils opportunities to reflect on their learning and the world around them. There are also good opportunities to think about the wide range of different heritages represented in the school, and to celebrate many different festivals. These mean the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of pupils is well provided for and promote good relations and understanding between pupils from different backgrounds."
