School Description

This is a larger than average-sized primary school which has been created from a former junior school. There is a mixture of two- and three-form entry year groups because of the increasing numbers of pupils who require school places in the locality. The majority of pupils are of Pakistani heritage. There are increasing numbers of Gypsy/Roma and Eastern European pupils joining the school at various points in the school year. The majority of pupils speak English as an additional language. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils who are supported through the pupil premium is above the national average. The pupil premium is additional government funding to support those pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and those who are looked after. The proportion of pupils with disability and those who have special educational needs is above the national average. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress by the end of Year 6 in reading, writing and mathematics. Since the previous inspection there have been many staffing changes. In September 2015, the school entered into a formal learning partnership with a local primary school, Owler Brook, and an executive headteacher took up post. There have also been significant changes in senior and middle leaders and managers, and in teachers across the school. The governing body has been reconstituted, with new governors appointed, including a new Chair and vice-chair of governors. The school receives support from Owler Brook Primary School, Sheffield, the Sheffield Teaching School Alliance, and the local authority. There is a breakfast club, managed by the school.
