The curriculum is rich, broad and exciting. Learning is made meaningful to pupils through clear links to the school's values and the wider world. Governors are effective in their leadership roles.

They check things meticulously to ensure that they provide leaders with both support and challenge. Safeguarding systems are robust. Processes to keep pupils safe are widely unde...rstood.

Staff have had all the necessary training to help them to keep pupils safe. Teachers plan lessons which pupils enjoy. Lessons are mostly well matched to pupils' needs and support pupils in making good progress from their starting points.

In some aspects of writing, such as spelling, expectations are not always high enough. Teachers use questioning highly effectively to extend pupils' thinking and to assess their depth of understanding. Pupils play an active and important role in all layers of school life.

They participate fully in lessons and in school development. There are myriads of opportunities for pupils to be involved. As a result, pupils are confident, articulate and well prepared both for the next steps in their education and life beyond.
