This infant school has above the national average proportion of pupils who are entitled to free school meals. The pupils come from a predominantly White British heritage. Seven pupils are at an early stage of learning to speak English. There is a much higher proportion of pupils with a statement of special educational needs than is usual. This is because there is an on-site 16-place unit that caters for pupils with a range of learning difficulties and/or physical disabilities. All of these pupils have statements, and all have full access to the National Curriculum. The proportion of pupils with learning difficulties and/or disabilities is well above average; for those pupils in the main school, these are mainly associated with speech and language difficulties. The Early Years Foundation Stage consists of two Reception classes. A new Children's Centre is shortly opening on the school site. Privately run pre- and after-school clubs use the school premises.
