Glapthorn Church of England Primary School is a happy, welcoming place. Pupils comment that their teachers are supportive, kind and encouraging. Pupils understand the school’s core values of love, courage, creativity, faithfulness and kindness. They adhere to these closely, showing care and concern for each other. Leaders and staff have high expectations of pupils’ behaviour and achievements. The school’s ‘learning dinosaurs’, Tryosaurus, Respectosaurus, Thinkosaurus and Explorasaurus, have been carefully constructed to combine learning behaviours with the school’s Christian values. The school has a calm, orderly and purposeful atmosphere. Pupils behave well and are respectful to each other and to adults. Behaviour is positive in lessons and around the school site. Pupils say that bullying is rare. They trust staff to resolve incidents quickly. Parents and carers are supportive of the school. One parent, typical of many, said, ‘Glapthorn Primary is not just a school, it is a community and a family.’ Most parents would recommend the school.
