Staff expect pupils to try hard and show resilience. Pupils rise to this challenge. Pupils achieve extremely well here, including disadvantaged pupils. Pupils behave exceptionally well. They have high expectations of each other's behaviour. They co-operate with each other and treat each other kindly. The warm and positive relationships between staff and pupils are obvious. All pupils explain how teachers help them to be safe and happy. Pupils understand that the adults in school want the best for them. Pupils, parents and staff are extremely proud to be members of this school community. Pupils take pride in all their successes.
