‘Pupils are articulate and express their views and opinions clearly. Pupils listen attentively, respect other people’s ideas and their attitudes to learning are positive. This is evident in pupils’ diligence in class and in the high-quality presentation in their books. Relationships between staff and pupils are supportive and nurturing. As a result, pupils are keen to challenge themselves in their learning’. (Ofsted 2017)
