Pupils are happy in school, and they get on well together. They value the warm welcome they receive from caring staff each morning. Pupils are polite and friendly. They understand that leaders and teachers expect them to behave well.
Pupils make a positive contribution to their local community in activities such as litter picking and organising food bank donations. Many pupils take full advantage of the wide range of after-school clubs on offer. Leaders ensure that these activities appeal to pupils’ broad range of interests.
It's the first time I have visited your school, it feels so warm and welcoming. It was lovely to see the children all working hard and happily on task. I was made to feel very welcome.
Pupils feel safe in school. They know that staff are ready to listen and support them if they have any worries or concerns. Leaders deal with bullying effectively. Pupils feel valued because staff take time to get to know them well.

Parent Survey 2024 “91% of parents would strongly recommend or recommend the school to others.”
Jack Sowter - Executive Headteacher (West Yorkshire) “Leaders have developed a curriculum they are proud of, that takes into account their community and needs of the school.”
