What it's like to be a pupil at this school

​

Pupils at The Manor have an enjoyable experience that prepares them well for the next stage of their learning. Pupils achieve well and feel safe, knowing staff always look after them. Pupils consistently behave well, and pupils know who to talk to should they have any worries or concerns.

​

The school's ethos is underpinned by the curriculum drivers 'Spirituality, Community and the Arts'. Through these, pupils develop a sense of independence and confidence. Pupils thrive during learning because adults are able to focus on teaching. They rarely have to remind pupils about positive behaviour.

​

The school values: 'thankfulness, compassion, honesty, forgiveness, friendship and courage' are evident in day-to-day activities. Older children model positive behaviour consistently. Younger children are quick to help and support one another. Behaviour such as this helps pupils feel they belong to their school community.

​

Pupils feel that their school is like a family where they are helped to shine. They know that their teachers care about their learning and their wellbeing. The school culture helps pupils to learn well, and because of this, they flourish. Positive relationships between staff and pupils are given high priority. Pupils enjoy their learning and they like coming to school. As a result, pupils regularly attend school. They value their school, their peers and the adults who teach them. Pupils show respect to one another. Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities or who are disadvantaged are fully included in all aspects of school life.
