School Description

 This school is larger than the average sized primary school.  The early years consists of two classes. Children in the Nursery class attend part time, either for the morning or the afternoon and Reception children attend full time.  Pupils from Years 1 to 6 are taught in six single-aged classes and three mixed-age classes.  About one in seven pupils are disabled or have special educational needs. This is broadly average.  The proportion of disadvantaged pupils, those who are eligible for the pupil premium is below average. The pupil premium provides additional government funding to support those children who are known to be eligible for free school meals or in the care of the local authority.  Almost a third of the pupils are from minority ethnic groups, which is slightly above average. The largest group represented are of Pakistani heritage. At one in five, the proportion of pupils who speak English as an additional language is average.  The school does not meet the government’s current floor standards which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in English and mathematics by the end of Year 6.  A new Chair of the Governing Body took over the role this term. A number of new governors have joined the governing body in the last 18 months.  The school has experienced considerable change and upheaval in staffing since the previous inspection. Following a series of short-term interim headteachers over a two year period, a new headteacher and deputy headteacher were appointed in September 2014. A coordinator for special educational needs and a coordinator for the early years were appointed in January 2015. There has been movement of teachers to different classes and a number of new teachers have joined the school. The school has also experienced a number of staff absences due to maternity leave.
