Verbatim from the published report (Ofsted inspection report). Open the full PDF for context.

Pupils thrive here. Leaders go out of their way to make sure that pupils and their families feel that they belong.

Older pupils act as buddies to classmates who join at other times. Warm relationships ensure that pupils feel well cared for and safe in school. Attendance is high.
