This is a much larger-than-average-sized primary school and has recently expanded so that provision is now across two sites. In the Early Years Foundation Stage there is a 104 part-time place Nursery and a Reception with four classes. There are sixteen mixed-age classes across the school in: Years 1 and Year 2; Years 3 and 4; and Years 5 and 6. The proportion of pupils from minority ethnic backgrounds is higher than average. A large number of different ethnic backgrounds are represented. A majority of pupils speak English as an additional language. Many are at the early stages of learning English. The number of pupils starting and leaving the school at other than at the usual times is above average. The proportion of pupils receiving support from the pupil premium funding, which is the extra government support for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals, looked after children and those from service families, is above average. In this school it relates to pupils who are eligible for free school meals and those in local authority care. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported at school action is above average. The proportion supported at school action plus, or who have a statement of special educational needs, is also high when compared to national figures. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in English and mathematics. The school has been acknowledged by the Department of Education as being among the top 250 schools nationally in terms of the progress disadvantaged pupils make in Key Stage 2. It has been chosen to be part of the Mayor of London’s Gold Club, which is a scheme that celebrates and shares exceptional practice in schools. The school was awarded the Governor Mark in 2013. The interim headteacher is currently working alongside one of the deputy headteachers who will assume the position of headteacher in September 2014.
