 ‘The school supports pupils’ broader personal development well. Pupils learn about the importance of healthy relationships and of how to treat everyone with equal respect, regardless of differences. Trained staff are available to support pupils’ wellbeing and mental health needs. Pupils new to the country are welcomed into the school. The elected school council gives pupils a voice. They proudly describe the school as ‘inclusive and diverse’. They are well prepared for modern British society.’
