The report praised the school’s ambitious vision, which is shared by students, parents, and staff. It also highlighted the school’s “vibrant culture”, “consistently effective teaching”, “behaviour [that is] excellent in lessons and at social times”, and “personal development [opportunities that are] a strong and distinctive feature of the school”. Perhaps most importantly, the report confirmed that this is a place where children are “known as individuals”, students feel “safe, happy, and valued” and are “very proud of their school”.
