The school is larger than the average primary school with almost half of its pupils travelling from out of the normal catchment area. The proportion of pupils from a variety of minority ethnic backgrounds is below average and very few speak English as an additional language. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs is below average but above average for those who have a statement of educational needs. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for free school meals is below average. Amongst its national awards, the school has Healthy School status and the International Schools Award. The last routine inspection was deferred following a review by Ofsted, which found high attainment was being sustained. In the last academic year, significant staffing turbulence affected half of the eight classes. Temporary teachers are still covering two classes. The school meets the current floor standard, whereby the government sets the minimum expectations for attainment and progress. There is a before- and after-school club run and managed by the school during term time. It was part of the inspection and is included in this report.
