When reminders are needed, adults help pupils make the right choice and learn from their slip-ups. The school has high aspirations for all pupils. Pupils work hard and learn well.

What the school should improve
- There remains a legacy of weaknesses, including in mathematics in upper key stage 2. This means that some groups of pupils have gaps in their knowledge. The trust should continue to eradicate the legacy of underachievement so that pupils achieve consistently well in all areas of the curriculum.
