Tanners Brook Infant School became an all through primary school in September 2013. It expanded rapidly when Tanners Brook Junior School closed and the pupils from the junior school joined Tanners Brook Primary. The substantive headteacher of Tanners Brook Infant school took up post as headteacher of Tanners Brook Primary at this time. Tanners Brook Primary is much larger than most primary schools. The school has three Reception classes, four classes in each of Years 1 and 2 and three classes in Years 3 to 6. The school has specially resourced provision for pupils with special educational needs. This is for pupils with hearing impairment. There are 12 pupils in the unit, including pupils from Reception to Year 6. The majority of pupils are of White British heritage. The proportion of pupils speaking English as an additional language is above the national average at about 15%, although few are at early stages of learning to speak English. The proportion of pupils supported through pupil premium is above the national average. This is additional government funding for pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals and those who are looked after by the local authority. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs on the school roll is about 20%. This is well above that found in most schools. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress. In January 2013, Tanners Brook Junior School received a monitoring visit by Ofsted, because it was judged to be requiring improvement when inspected in November 2012. The infant school was deemed good at its previous Ofsted inspection in June 2012. There is a privately-managed pre-school on site. The breakfast and after-school clubs are also separately managed. All of these are subject to separate inspections and their reports can be found on the Ofsted website.
