Today was Fantastic Thursday, we appreciated students who showed Ambition — especially those who made a strong start, tackled bell tasks boldly, and brought focus to their lessons. Fantastic Friday will return in November when we'll appreciate those who demonstrate Bravery.

We are proud that the hard work of pupils, families and staff have been recognised in this article. The increasing strength of the school’s performance is a result of us all living our values of ambition, bravery and care every day. https://t.co/peqf9kmALL
