Ofsted, 2019:

• Leaders provide pupils with a curriculum that is rich in opportunities and experiences, including a wide range of extra-curricular activities.
• Leaders are passionate about ensuring that the school is inclusive for all. They work hard to make all pupils welcome.
• All teachers receive professional development that balances their individual needs with those of the school. Teachers who are still relatively new to the profession feel well supported, both with their teaching and their pastoral responsibilities.
• Pupils develop as well-rounded individuals who value diversity and equality, across a range of different religions and cultures. In the words of one parent, ‘My child is happy and maturing well, with kindness and tolerance.’
• Pupils have positive attitudes to learning and value the help and support they receive from staff.
• The trust’s mission of ‘building leadership and character together’ is clearly evident throughout all years.
