As a result, pupils are well prepared for the next stage of their education and for life beyond school. Pupils behave well in lessons and throughout school. They are polite and courteous. Pupils have strong relationships with adults. Positive behaviour and relationships are founded on a culture of mutual respect. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are supported well. The majority of pupils access after-school activities through 'Wednesday Club'.

Pupils also enjoy opportunities to be involved in sporting competitions with other schools.
What the school should improve
- The PSHE programme does not cover aspects of British values in sufficient depth. As a result, some pupils do not have an age-appropriate understanding of the importance of these values in modern British society. The school should ensure that its PSHE curriculum deepens pupils' knowledge and understanding of all aspects of British values.
