The school is larger than the average-sized primary school and has a one-and-a-half-form entry. Children begin the Early Years Foundation Stage in the Nursery class where they attend on a part-time basis. Reception children attend full time. There is an above-average proportion of pupils who are disadvantaged and supported through the pupil premium funding because they are known to be eligible for free school meals, or are in local authority care. Almost two-thirds of pupils are of White British heritage meaning there is a larger than average proportion of pupils from other backgrounds. The largest of these other groups are of Indian heritage and this accounts for almost a fifth of pupils. The proportion of pupils who are believed to be at the early stages of learning to speak English as an additional language is about average. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs is above average. The school does not meet the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress. Following the last inspection in June 2014, the headteacher and deputy headteacher left the school and the Chair of the Governing Body stepped down from the role. A new Chair was appointed in September 2014 and the interim headteacher, who was appointed to cover the period until December, has now been made permanent. A new deputy headteacher is due to start in the school in April and there are two temporary assistant headteachers sharing senior leadership responsibilities with the headteacher in the interim. Support is given to the school by a Local Leader of Education which has been commissioned through Manor Primary School.
