Our School in the words of our children

(Pupil Survey February 2022)

Pupils were asked to choose from a selection of words to describe the school. The words were made into a word cloud where the most common words chosen are larger in size.

What we like about our school..

"...the teachers. You can always talk to them no matter what."

"...I like that we have a lot of different subjects because some people like things that other people don’t like and we get a chance to do something that we like."

"... You get to see your friends and to learn a lot."

"... I like that we treat everyone the same."

"...learning new things and growing my mind."
