The school is smaller than the average sized primary school. Children in the Early Years Foundation Stage attend full-time in the Reception class. Most pupils are of White British heritage, with under 10% from a range of minority ethnic groups. Very few pupils speak English as an additional language. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils eligible for the pupil premium is below average. The pupil premium provides additional funding for children who are in the care of the local authority or those known to be eligible for free school meals. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is broadly average. The proportion supported through school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is below average. These needs relate mainly to moderate learning difficulties. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress. A new deputy headteacher and a new special educational needs coordinator were appointed in September 2014. The headteacher plays a leading role in supporting schools in the local school network.
