The headteacher joined the school in April 2016. There have been considerable changes in staffing since the previous inspection. Since the last inspection, governance has been the responsibility of the academy sponsor, TEFT, via an academy advisory board. In March 2017, the DfE agreed to a request from the current sponsor, TEFT, to terminate their funding agreement for all 12 of their schools. As a result, all of them, including Warwick Academy, are being rebrokered by the regional schools commissioner. TEFT remains in place as the sponsor until that matter is resolved. The DfE has provided funding for LAT to undertake consultancy work with the school during the rebrokering process. The school is larger than the average-sized primary school. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils is well above the national average.
