Manor Hill First School is a caring school where pupils are happy and safe. Parents and carers are very positive about the school. One parent summed up the views of many when they said, ‘This is more than a school: it is a community where children and families are supported and cared for.’ Pupils are proud to attend their school. They behave well in lessons and at playtimes. Pupils can explain what bullying is. They say that bullying sometimes happens, but adults will deal with it quickly. The school has high expectations of all pupils. Staff want all pupils at the school, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), to achieve their very best. Pupils enjoy school and feel well supported. They can clearly articulate how the school’s core values of exploration, resilience, creativity and collaboration help them to learn. They understand the importance of these values. Pupils can participate in a wide range of experiences that feature on the ‘wheel of champion opportunities’. These include litter picking, meeting an inspirational person and visiting a theatre. Pupils also enjoy attending clubs such as cookery and dance, and value opportunities to help their local community.
