'Classrooms are calm and focused places to learn. The school rewards pupils’ positive work and attitudes in different ways. Pupils talk enthusiastically about voting for activities in ‘Golden Time’ as a reward. There are a variety of leadership roles available for pupils. Pupils say they enjoy leading assemblies as it gives them confidence. They are enthusiastic about their learning beyond the classroom, such as school visits and trips. Pupils spoke enthusiastically about a trip to Kielder and the activities they took part in, such as the zip wire. Various after-school activities help pupils socialise beyond the school day.'
