This is a good school, with some outstanding features. It lives up to its motto,

‘Unlocking potential, celebrating achievement.’ From the outset, the school

successfully fosters in pupils a love of learning and the dispositions needed to be

good learners. Throughout the school, vibrant displays of pupils’ work celebrate their

achievements and stimulate their thinking. Pupils’ enthusiasm for learning and their

exemplary behaviour are key ingredients in their good achievement and the above

average standards they reach. Pupils thrive because the care and support provided

for them are outstanding. Staff know them very well, so pupils feel safe and are

confident that there is someone to turn to should they have a problem. Relationships

of mutual respect characterise the school. (Ofsted 2009)
