From the inspection on 25 March 2025
Pupils flourish at this exceptionally nurturing school. They are happy and know that staff care about them. Children in the Reception class love exploring the exciting outdoor environment. They learn and play harmoniously alongside their friends. The positive relationships fostered across the school help all pupils to settle quickly, especially those pupils who may arrive at different points during the school year. Pupils behave well and listen attentively in lessons. Pupils, including pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), endeavour to live up to the high expectations that the school has of them. They work hard and strive to do their best. This helps them to achieve well. Pupils talk enthusiastically about the exciting opportunities that the school provides. They know how to keep themselves safe, especially when they are near the beach or using the internet. Learning to canoe on residential trips and performing at the Blackpool Opera House help to develop pupils' confidence and resilience. Pupils appreciate the extensive range of clubs that they can attend, for example early morning football, cooking and crafts. Older pupils contribute to the life of the school as members of different committees. As role models, they embody the school's values of kindness, honesty, friendship and respect.
