School Description

This is a larger than average school for pupils aged 7 to 11. It has expanded in size since the previous inspection and now has three classes in Years 3 to 5 and four in Year 6 because the school was asked to take an additional class. It shares a site with Park Hill Infant School whose pupils have priority when applying for admission to the Junior School. The school has had an extensive building programme to accommodate the increase in size. The leadership team has changed considerably in the last two years. The headteacher has been in post for just over a year, initially as acting headteacher and since April 2014 as the substantive headteacher. A new Chair of the Governing Body was elected in the summer term 2014 and a new deputy headteacher joined the school in September 2014. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for support through the pupil premium is broadly average. This is additional government funding for specific groups, including those known to be entitled to free school meals and those who are looked after by the local authority. The proportion of pupils from minority ethnic backgrounds is high. The largest group is of Indian ethnic origin and makes up about one third of the school. About half of all pupils speak English as an additional language, though very few are at an early stage of learning English. The proportion of disabled students and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is above average. The proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is slightly below average. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress. The school runs breakfast and after-school clubs which were visited as part of this inspection.
