In the inspectors' and the school's words

Academic
The curriculum is ambitious and enables pupils to extend their knowledge and skills[8]
Warmth
The school's values are shared effectively so that relationships between staff and pupils are respectful and kind.[8]
Pastoral care
Leaders create a positive, caring ethos in the school. Leaders address any issues promptly and sensitively so that bullying is rare.[8]
Behaviour
They behave positively and are polite and respectful. Pupils are highly motivated. They apply effort and explain what they are learning, and why, eloquently.[8]
Learning support
The leader of provision for pupils who have SEND has established a robust system for identifying pupils' needs early. Pupils who have SEND learn successfully and make good progress from their starting points.[8]
Enrichment
The school provides a range of clubs for pupils to cultivate new interests and develop talents. Leaders provide off-site trips to local museums and institutions such as Hampton Court and the Globe Theatre[8]
Pupil voice
Pupils develop leadership skills through the school council and the eco-council. Pupils in Year 6 take turns to be head of school, deputy head of school, prefects and games, music and art captains.[8]
Independence
Pupils across the school are encouraged to think for themselves, share their ideas and ask questions to move their learning forward. Pupils reflect on their own work frequently and plan their next steps with their teachers.[8]
Structure
Pupils understand the expectations and rationale in the school's behaviour policy and behave well. Staff and pupils understand the behaviour policy and the importance of rewards and sanctions.[8]
Diversity
Pupils who speak EAL are encouraged to celebrate their own languages through whole school events such as 'European languages week'. They understand that people of different faiths have different beliefs and everyone deserves respect.[8]
Sport
leaders recently improved the balance between pupils' academic and sport commitments to support pupils' wellbeing[8]
Visual arts
Older pupils create animated movies, design products in a 3D printer and make mechanical toys.[8]
