Ofsted, March 2022 says
“This is a school whose ethos is truly reflected in the pupils –they work hard, show kindness to all and take up opportunities to broaden their experiences.”
“Leaders and governors are restless in their pursuit of excellence. They want the very best for the pupils here. Staff share this purpose and enjoy the collaborative staff culture. They feel well supported by leaders who engage with them about matters of workload and wellbeing”
