Pupils are proud to be part of St John’s Catholic Primary School and all that it stands for. They are keen to explain the school values and what it means to ‘love one another’. Pupils show respect and thoughtfulness around the school. Bullying is rare. Staff resolve any cases quickly and effectively. Pupils know this and are confident to turn to them if needed. Pupils behave well, rising to meet leaders’ high aspirations in lessons and during social time. They work hard and focus well on their learning. Pupils help each other when they occasionally fall short of their intentions, showing resilience and reflecting calmly about how they can learn from any mistakes. Pupils are happy to attend school. They join in the wide range of learning and extracurricular activities with energy and enthusiasm. From Reception Year onwards, pupils are encouraged to try new things, explore the unfamiliar and develop new skills. All pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), are supported to join in with these enriching experiences, including residential trips. Pupils relish the wide range of clubs ranging from sports to sewing. Parents and carers are also positive about this happy school, many describing it as a ‘lovely school’.
