St Ann’s Primary school is built on strong relationships. Pupils say that they feel safe because they know that staff care about them and will help if they have a concern. Pupils show thoughtful acceptance and understanding of others. They value and embrace difference and, as a result, new pupils are warmly welcomed into the school. One pupil said that ‘equality is important here, nobody misses out.’ Leaders have high expectations of pupils’ achievements and behaviour. Pupils value recognition of their successes, taking pride in seeing their work displayed around the school. Classrooms are calm and it is very rare for learning to be disrupted. Staff are skilled in addressing and supporting the behaviour of pupils with additional needs. They do this very effectively, through their knowledge of, and positive relationships with, individual pupils. Pupils say that bullying rarely happens. Nonetheless, they trust staff to address it quickly and effectively should it occur. Breakfast club provides a social and relaxed start to the day. There is a warm welcome for pupils and parents alike. There are other opportunities to deepen learning in the wider curriculum, such as visits that are linked to pupils’ topics, different school clubs and charity events.
