The school and the number of pupils in all year groups are much smaller than others nationally. The school takes pupils from several villages in the North of Leicestershire. Pupils come from a very wide range of social backgrounds. The school currently has three classes. Class One for pupils in Reception and Year 1, Class Two for pupils in Years 2 and 3 and Class Three for pupils in Years 4, 5 and 6. Each of these has a class teacher. A fourth part-time teacher teaches half the pupils from Class Three four mornings per week. The proportion of disabled pupils and others with special educational needs, who are supported at the level of school action plus or who have a statement, is higher than in most other schools. These pupils have a range of needs including speech and language difficulties, specific learning difficulties, moderate learning difficulties and hearing impairments. The proportion of disabled pupils and others with special educational needs, supported at the level of school action, is slightly lower than the national average. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for the pupil premium is broadly in line with the national average. This is additional funding for certain groups of pupils, in this case pupils known to be eligible for free school meals. In this very small school the numbers of pupils who are and are not eligible for pupil premium are very small in each year group. Leaders are currently investigating, and consulting others on, the possibility of the school becoming an academy within Leicester Diocese Multi-Academy Trust. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in English and mathematics.
