In the inspectors' and the school's words

Academic
As pupils move through the school, they typically achieve reading ages and writing levels above the expected standards for their chronological age.[7]
Warmth
Pupils are happy at school and talk with honesty and openness to visiting adults. They enjoy positive relationships with their teachers and support staff. Pupils understand the value of community and demonstrate a sense of family and of belonging to the school.[7]
Pastoral care
Leaders’ decisions focus on pupils’ wellbeing. Pupils’ emotional needs are further met through the work of specifically trained support staff.[7]
Behaviour
Poor behaviour and incidents of bullying rarely occur. Pupils are well mannered and reflect high standards of behaviour around the school site[7]
Learning support
pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those who speak English as an additional language (EAL) make progress in their learning because of the additional support they receive. This means that they do not always teach pupils’ specific next steps. This includes for pupils who have SEND and those who speak EAL.[7]
Enrichment
The learning experience of pupils is enriched by a range of extra-curricular clubs such as science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), coding skills, gym, fencing ...[7]
Pupil voice
Pupils experience first-hand the principles of democratic government through listening to presentations by their peers and then voting for class representatives to join the school and eco-councils.[7]
Independence
As a result, pupils are well motivated, take responsibility for their learning and take pride in their work.[7]
Collaboration
Activities such as building the highest tower promote teamwork and the synthesis of ideas[7]
Structure
Pupils are clear about the school’s expectations regarding their behaviour because staff are consistent in their use of the school’s strategies.[7]
Diversity
The school has identified English as an additional language for 165 pupils. Pupils display mutual respect for diversity, appreciate difference and are polite and welcoming.[7]
Sport
providing a foundation for lifelong enjoyment of sport through activities such as athletics, football and hockey.[7]
