Buttercup Primary School opened in 2012. It is an Islamic day school that caters for pupils aged from three to 11 years. The school is housed over three floors in a building alongside shops and businesses. There is no outdoor space on the school site. Daily use is made of local outdoor provision. There are currently 137 pupils on roll, 27 of whom are in the early years class. Children in the early years attend part time for either morning or afternoon sessions. There are four mixed-age classes across the school. Pupils come from a range of cultural backgrounds, including Bangladeshi, Pakistani, Somali and North African heritages. Almost all pupils are from Muslim backgrounds. Most Inspection report: Buttercup Primary School, 4–6 July 2017 Page 11 of 14 pupils speak at least two languages, including English. None of the pupils are considered to be at an early stage of acquiring English as an additional language. The school’s vision states, ‘the Muslim values, principles and standards lie at the heart of our education alongside a strong recognition of world faiths and the multicultural society in which we live’. There are currently no pupils who have special educational needs and/ or disabilities on roll. The previous full inspection of the school took place in December 2014. This inspection found that there were unmet independent school standards. In September 2015, Ofsted conducted a progress monitoring inspection to check on the school’s progress towards meeting all the independent school standards. That inspection found that the school was meeting the previously unmet standards. Following the progress monitoring inspection in September 2015, the joint proprietors disbanded the school’s governing body. Consequently, two joint proprietors, one of whom is the headteacher of the school, are responsible for the governance of the school.
