What is it like to attend this school?
"Pupils are proud of their school. They enthuse about it to their parents, who know that they feel safe and happy. Pupils have many subjects to choose from, so everyone gets a chance to shine. They know that leaders have very high expectations of what they can achieve.
The school recently changed from being a middle school. Pupils said that leaders have kept the best things about the old school, but made it even better. This is because leaders have kept a sharp focus on making teaching even more effective.
Pupils know that leaders seek out their opinions, and those of other members of the school, including teachers and parents. Leaders listen carefully to what they are told and make improvements as a result.
Pupils have wonderful opportunities to contribute to their school and they are inspired by the wide range of high-quality clubs and societies they regularly attend. They are incredibly well prepared for their next steps.
Pupils’ ‘life-skills’ lessons are expertly planned and delivered. Pupils learn the importance of treating others with respect. This helps shape their positive conduct, and they behave and attend well. If they encounter poor behaviour such as bullying, they are confident it will be dealt with effectively."
