This enables all pupils to achieve very highly. There is a strong sense of community in the school. This includes for parents and carers who can attend the morning coffee shop and are regularly invited into the school. Staff have built extremely positive relationships with pupils. They know the pupils very well which ensures they are kept safe. Leaders have created a calm, orderly and welcoming environment. Pupils are extremely happy here. Behaviour is exemplary during lessons and around the school site. Pupils all take part in a very broad range of wider opportunities.
