What The Good Schools Guide says..
We saw Victorian washing strung across the classroom, butterflies in remembrance of the suffragettes, all these part of the creative curriculum. Head is keen to ensure pupils are not too cosy; instead they are put in situations where they have to make their own decisions. By year 6, they enjoy pouring milk for the nursery at break time and putting all the equipment away in the shed at the sound of the bell – as well. Others love to be in charge of logging books in and out of the friendly library; school council also very active. Some great art on the walls and in process - ranging from Mexican Day of the Dead inspired foil skulls...
