Pupils are eager to come to school and enjoy their lessons. Their attendance is high. Pupils have positive attitudes, listen carefully to their teachers and engage well in learning. Pupils feel safe. They know that there are staff who they can talk to if they have any worries. The school is a calm, nurturing environment. Pupils respond well to the school's high expectations for their behaviour. Bullying is rare, but when it does happen, staff act quickly to resolve the issues. From the early years, pupils learn that looking after one another is important. Pupils establish positive relationships with staff. The school is a close-knit community where pupils are happy to serve others. They are proud of their wider charitable work within the local area to support families in times of need. Pupil 'peacemakers' help other pupils to play amicably at playtimes. Pupils are proud of the different roles they hold in school. They relish the variety of visitors to school and the trips and experiences that enhance the curriculum and broaden their understanding of the world. The school promotes the joy of reading from the early years. Pupils eagerly talk about the books they enjoy. Pupil librarians are keen to promote the choice of books in the school's library. Pupils, including disadvantaged pupils and those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, consistently achieve highly.

Pupils leave the school at the end of Year 6 ready for the next stage of their education and well prepared for life beyond school.
