ISI report
“Pupils achieve success in many areas. In the junior school this ranges from gaining black belts in judo, to reaching the county final of a small schools’ football competition… Throughout the school pupils’ attitudes to learning are generally very positive. They are enthusiastic and well motivated, and they enjoy learning. They exhibit pride in their work, which is well organised, and they work effectively in groups or individually as required. Pupils at all stages show a willingness to take the initiative when encouraged to do so.”
