Transcript

00:00Hello, I'm Matt Johnson. I'm the headteacher at Coppola Primary School.

00:03So tell me how you feel about your recent Ofsted report.

00:06We're absolutely thrilled and delighted with our Ofsted report.

00:09It's such a positive report that reflects the hard work, dedication and journey that our school has been on over the last couple of years.

00:16It's a testament to all of our staff, the parents and most importantly our children

00:21that we are delighted that all the hard work has been and the outcomes have been recognised.

00:29The fact that we've got outstanding full behaviour and attitude is absolutely fantastic as well as our personal development.

00:35We put a massive amount of effort here into our core values and one of them is especially knowing every child

00:43and the fact that we were just under 700 children and the largest primary school on the island.

00:49We are delighted that we know every child, we inspire every mind and we achieve every day.

00:54Tell me what makes your school so special.

00:57I think the most special thing here is our school community.

01:01It's not just a school, it's not just a building, it is a family.

01:05And I think for me here, being the headteacher, it's the fact that every morning when we stand on the gate,

01:10seeing those children come in with smiles on their faces,

01:13good morning, good afternoon, good day, and seeing them come in inspired for learning

01:18and that's what makes us tick.

01:20The staff are thrilled with that and revel in it.

01:24The children love everything that we have created here

01:26and that's a whole family feel rather than just being in school.

01:30Tell me what the plans are for the future of the school.

01:32Our next plans then are to continue our development with our redevelopment of our buildings

01:39and that works.

01:40We've just recently put in an e-sports suite.

01:43So it will be training our children in the life of 21st century,

01:48what that means to us beyond just the curriculum.

01:52It's now about their social emotional development as well

01:54and life in Britain in its widest sense.

01:57It's now about their children in the life of 21st century,
