The school is an average-sized primary school. About one third of pupils are eligible for the pupil premium. This is above the national average. The pupil premium is additional funding for pupils who, in this school, are known to be eligible for free school meals. Around one in 10 pupils are disabled or have special educational needs. This is below the national average. Almost all the school’s pupils come from a White British background. A little over one in 10 of the pupils come from minority ethnic backgrounds and a similar proportion speak English as an additional language. This is below the national average. Following the last inspection, a high number of staff left the school and were replaced. Many subject leaders are new to their posts. The headteacher was appointed in September 2013 and the deputy headteacher and the phase leaders for Key Stage 2 took up their posts in September 2014. A review of governance was completed by the local authority in May 2014. Within the local authority, the school leads on approaches to good behavioural management. The school has two full-time Reception classes. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in English and mathematics by the end of Year 6.
