The school is larger than the average primary school. The school population is growing. At present there are two Reception classes and two Year 1 classes. All other year groups are made up of one class. The majority of pupils are from White British backgrounds but an increasing number come from minority ethnic backgrounds. The proportion of pupils who speak English as an additional language is above average. The proportion of pupils supported by the pupil premium (additional funding for certain groups such as pupils known to be eligible for free school meals or looked after by the local authority) is above average. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is below average. The proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is also below average. The school meets the current government floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ progress and attainment. The headteacher and other leaders provide support for other schools. At the time of the inspection building work was being undertaken to a major expansion of the school to accommodate the additional classes.
