Most pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve well. They are ready for the next stage in their education. Pupils are polite and respectful. They have an age-appropriate understanding of equality and diversity. Pupils told the inspector that 'no one is better than anyone else'. Pupils have a strong understanding of the school's values of care, collaboration and challenge. They spoke confidently about how these morals are central to their lives in school and beyond. Pupils benefit from a variety of opportunities to learn outside the classroom. They have a range of residential trips and visits to the local area and further afield.

What the school should improve
- At times, in a small number of subjects, teachers do not make their explanations in lessons clear enough. This means that some pupils do not learn as much as they could and find it difficult to explain what they have learned. The school should support all staff to help pupils fully embed knowledge so that they know and remember more.
