New City Primary is a much larger than average-sized primary school. A slightly larger than average proportion of pupils are eligible for pupil premium funding. This is additional government funding to support pupils who are eligible for free school meals, have a parent or carer in the armed forces or who are looked after by the local authority. The large majority of pupils come from a range minority ethnic groups. The largest group of pupils are Bangladeshi, followed by Pakistani pupils. The next largest group are pupils with ‘Any other White background’. The proportion of pupils who have special educational needs or disability is broadly average. There have been significant changes to the membership of the leadership team and to the governing body since the previous inspection. The school runs a breakfast and an after-school club. The school has recently started to benefit from the support of a national leader of education and from links with a local outstanding primary school. The school meets requirements on the publication of specified information on its website.
