What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 February 2023
Pupils thrive at this highly inclusive and welcoming school. They fully understand what it means to be a 'St Peter's Citizen'. Pupils say that this helps them feel part of a community where everyone gives their best and sets a positive example to others. Pupils meet leaders' high expectations for behaviour and conduct. They respond extremely well to the clear structures and routines that are in place. Learning progresses without interruption. This starts in the early years where children are eager to learn, listen to instructions carefully and show high levels of respect to one another. Pupils feel safe. Relationships between staff are warm and respectful. Pupils know that staff will listen to them and help them with any worries they have. They say that bullying does not happen. If it did occur, pupils are confident that staff would deal with it quickly. Pupils enjoy the wide range of clubs on offer to them such as choir, coding, chess, hockey, and art. They are proud of the many opportunities they have to become school councillors, eco reps, house captains, digital leaders, and mental health ambassadors. Pupils say that these roles make them feel proud and help them to develop their confidence.
