The school is larger than the average-sized primary school. The early years provision consists of part-time Nursery and full-time Reception classes. The number of children attending early years has risen sharply this year. Almost all Nursery places are full compared to less than a quarter in the previous year. The majority of children in the Reception classes joined the school from other settings. Most pupils are of White British heritage. Very few pupils speak English as an additional language. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs is broadly similar to the national average. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils eligible for support through pupil-premium funding is above that found in most other schools. This additional funding is provided for those who are known to be eligible for free school meals and those who are looked after by the local authority. The school has experienced a significant number of staffing changes since the last inspection. Seventeen staff have left the school and ten have joined the school. A new deputy headteacher took up her role in April 2014 and the early years leader joined the staff in September 2014. Two further subject leader appointments have been made to fill vacant posts. The new staff, including a new leader for mathematics, will take up their posts in September 2015. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in reading, writing and mathematics by the end of Year 6. The school holds the Investors in People award. A children’s centre operates on the school site. This is subject to separate inspection arrangements.
