Pupils are proud to be part of this exceptional school. The school has established an influential culture built around respect, curiosity and 'trying our best'. Pupils are inspired to live out these values and this is reflected in their exemplary conduct, interactions and work. Pupils see themselves as leaders in their school. They know that their contribution matters. Comberbach Nursery and Primary School is a vibrant and happy place to learn. The school places no limits on pupils' academic and personal development. The school and the trust have established a curriculum that enables a deep study of each subject. Pupils rise to this ambition. The school brings this curriculum to life for pupils by providing carefully planned visits. These visits inspire pupils' thirst for knowledge. Pupils link the wide experiences that they are given to their new learning. They find this learning irresistible. The school applies its high expectations of behaviour and routines consistently well. This supports pupils to manage and regulate their own behaviour. If pupils struggle to manage their own behaviour, adults provide effective support to help them to get back on track. Pupils recognise the importance of their learning. This helps to ensure that lessons are calm and focused. All pupils understand that what they learn now will support their ambitions for the future.
