What Ofsted says about our Good school: 'The quality of the curriculum is undoubtedly a strength of the school and underpins all aspects of learning. It has been imaginatively planned to take into account locally found experiences as well as building on the skills and talents of adults associated with the school. The curriculum is based around topics or themes and always begins with a question to stimulate pupils' interest. This approach engages pupils, who thoroughly enjoy finding answers and learning a range of skills that prepares them well for the next stage of their education.'
