These values are lived out by staff consistently well. They inspire pupils in their exemplary conduct, interactions and work. Pupils see themselves as leaders in their school. They know their voices make a positive difference to their school community. Together, staff and pupils have created a culture that includes everyone. The school is an exciting and happy place in which to learn. The school and the trust have established a curriculum that enables a deep study of each subject. Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve remarkably well. The school deliberately enhances the curriculum by providing pupils with many opportunities to develop their character and sense of citizenship. This inspires pupils' thirst for learning. They find this learning captivating. The school applies its high expectations of behaviour and routines consistently well. Pupils' behaviour and attitudes to their learning are exceptional. If pupils struggle, they are taught the strategies they need to manage their own behaviour. They use these strategies extraordinarily well. Lessons are calm and focused. All pupils understand what they learn now will support their aspirations for the future. They attend to this learning diligently.
