In the inspectors' and the school's words

Academic
Most children in the early years and pupils in the main school achieve levels of attainment beyond national age-related expectations.[6]
Warmth
The nurturing environment and carefully planned teaching enables children to develop ways to recognise and manage their feelings and emotions. Adults interact warmly and clearly with children in the early years to enhance their language skills.[6]
Pastoral care
children are able to monitor and modify their emotional development particularly well for their age. This is a significant strength of the school. On-site therapy has been established to support any pupils with mental health difficulties and challenging life experiences.[6]
Behaviour
Pupils’ behaviour is typically positive. However, in a few lessons, low-level misbehaviour is not managed consistently well, which interrupts learning.[6]
Learning support
targeted support and resources enabling them to make good progress practical resources such as wobble cushions and movement breaks are available, if required[6]
Enrichment
The extra-curricular programme is broad and encourages pupils of all ages to pursue their interests. develop their skills in areas including chess, karate, hockey, ballet, choir, gardening and art[6]
Pupil voice
Pupils presented a petition to the local council as part of their successful campaign for a zebra crossing outside the school. Pupil mental health champions are a visible presence for any pupil to talk to.[6]
Independence
Teaching employs thoughtful questioning to develop and challenge pupils’ independent thinking. Suitable challenges and open questions motivate pupils to think independently in mathematics.[6]
Diversity
PSHE lessons and theme days such as ‘International Day’ and ‘Global Hijab Day’ encourage pupils to celebrate their own and others’ cultures, identities and backgrounds.[6]
Sport
Teachers show secure subject knowledge and provide specialist expertise in areas such as modern foreign languages, science, computing, creative arts and sport. Sports activities, including football and netball, promote fitness.[6]
