“The school has a distinct, ‘family feel’ that emphasises respect and compassion for all. Pupils are happy and loyal to their school and are encouraged to be intellectually curious and independent thinkers. Pupils are polite, welcoming to visitors and keen to discuss their work and experiences of learning. During break and lunchtime, they cooperate and clearly enjoy spending time together. Pupils who attended an interview with inspectors stated that behaviour is good in their lessons and that learning is rarely disrupted.”
