The school is smaller than the average primary school. Numbers have fallen since the previous inspection because there is no longer a nursery class. About half of all pupils travel by choice from outside the normal catchment area. Most pupils are of White British heritage. The proportion of children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is below average and the proportion known to be eligible for free school meals is well below average. A new headteacher joined the school in September 2009. Three of the six singleage classes are taught on a job-share basis. A breakfast club each day for up to 15 pupils is managed by parents and carers for the benefit of other working parents and carers.
