They are proud of the diversity that exists in their school and community. Pupils' understanding of equality is exceptional. Pupils' conduct in lessons and at playtime is impeccable.

They talk confidently about their learning and have a real thirst to learn more every day. They achieve remarkably well and make very strong progress from a low starting point.
