School Description

Dovedale is a slightly larger-than-average primary school. In the 2012-2013 school year pupil numbers rose significantly, increasing the number of classes from nine to eleven. ‘Sawley’, a before-and after-school club shares the school site. It is not administered by the school’s governing body and, therefore, receives a separate inspection. The report is available on the Ofsted website. Nearly all pupils are White British and there is a much lower-than-average proportion of pupils from minority ethnic groups. A very small number speak English as an additional language. The proportions of disabled pupils and those who have special education needs supported through school action and at school action plus are below the national average. The proportion which has a statement of special educational needs is increasing but is presently still below the national average. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible to the pupil premium is well-below average. The funding is based on the number of looked-after children, those from service families and those known to be eligible for free school meals. The school has accredited awards for International School, Sing-Up and Eco-Friendly. The new headteacher started in September 2010. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress.
