The school is much smaller than the average-sized first school. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs supported through school action is below average, but the proportions supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is well-above average and includes pupils with behavioural difficulties. There are very few pupils from minority ethnic heritages and none speak English as an additional language. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for the pupil premium is below that found nationally. The Manor Hillbillies Nursery, managed by the governing body, shares the school’s site but was not part of the inspection. The school has recently undergone a period of turbulence in leadership and there is currently no substantive headeacher. The school is in a formal collaboration with Walton Priory Middle School and is led and managed by an executive headteacher and an associate headteacher. Pupils are taught in the Reception class and two mixed-age classes.
