“Pupils get on well with one another and new arrivals mid-term soon make friends. One Key Stage 3 pupil enthusiastically talked about having made ‘14 friends’. Pupils are developing a good understanding of different cultures and religions through their first-hand experiences of mixing with the diverse backgrounds represented in the academy”.
