Brune Park Community School is a mixed-gender school with a roll which is significantly above national averages. The school is supported by the local authority and other external providers including a secondment from the Charter Academy. The very great majority of pupils are from White British backgrounds. The proportion of pupils from minority ethnic groups and the proportion of those who speak English as an additional language are below average. The proportion of pupils supported by pupil premium funding is above the national average. This funding is for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and looked after children. A number of pupils were eligible for the Year 7 catch-up funding for those who did not attain Level 4 in either English or mathematics at the end of primary school. The proportion of pupils who have special educational needs or disability is average and the proportion of pupils with a statement or an education, health and care plan is below the national average. Eight pupils follow personalised part-time courses at local providers including Fareham College and the Motiv8 School in Gosport. In 2015, the school did not meet the government’s floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress from key stage 2 to key stage 4.
