The school is much smaller than the average-sized primary school. Children attend the Nursery either full or part time. They attend the Reception class full time. Almost all pupils are White British. An above-average proportion of pupils, almost one fifth, is disabled or has special educational needs. Just under one fifth of pupils are supported through the pupil premium (additional funding for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and looked-after children); this proportion is broadly average. The government’s floor standards were not applicable in this school. These set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress but only apply to schools with more than 10 pupils in Year 6. The headteacher, who was also the special educational needs coordinator, was absent from September 2014 owing to illness and resigned with effect from January 2015. The assistant headteacher acted as headteacher until the substantive headteacher resigned. A new temporary acting headteacher was appointed from January 2015. The school is supported by the headteacher of John Wilkinson Primary School, who is a Local Leader of Education. The school provides a breakfast club each morning.
