'Our children are challenged, motivated and encouraged in an atmosphere that allows them to develop socially and academically.' This was typical of comments made by many parents and is why the school is so popular. It is a good school with some outstanding features. So, what lies behind the success of this school? In no small measure it is good leadership and management. This is exemplified by the drive and passion of the Head Teacher and Staff to educate the whole child and not be 'entirely motivated by SATs results', to quote a parent. This has resulted in an outstanding curriculum. Pupils enjoy extremely rich experiences where, for example, the creative and cultural subjects have a very high profile. Despite this, performance in the vital subjects of English, mathematics and science has not been neglected. Pupils are achieving well through the school and they reach exceptionally high standards in the national tests by the time they leave.’
