Pupils learn without disruption. This starts in early years where children listen carefully and sustain concentration for long periods. Well-trained staff provide effective support to meet pupils’ social and emotional needs. For example, pupils learn the importance of teamwork and to manage risk in the forest areas. Feeding the pigs and chickens helps other pupils with their well-being.

Reading is at the core of the school’s curriculum. The inviting libraries and class reading areas are home to a range of high-quality books. Staff have carefully mapped out the books pupils will encounter as they move from year to year. These inspire pupils to read more widely and use more adventurous vocabulary in their writing.

The school’s enquiry curriculum is ambitious. Pupils learn across a broad range of subjects. For example, they enjoy being scientists, historians, mathematicians and artists. Teachers have a comprehensive overview of what pupils need to learn and when. In many cases, pupils’ learning builds on previous learning.
