Dorridge Primary School opened on 1 September 2014 following the amalgamation of Dorridge Infant School and Dorridge Junior School. The school’s unique reference number applied to the former infant school, which was deemed outstanding in March 2008. The junior school was deemed to require improvement when it was inspected in June 2013. The headteacher took up her post in January 2015. Dorridge Primary School is much larger than the average-sized primary school. The large majority of pupils are from White British backgrounds. The remainder of pupils are from a wide range of minority ethnic backgrounds. A small number of pupils speak English as an additional language. A much smaller than average proportion of pupils are known to be eligible for the pupil premium. Inspection report: Dorridge Primary School, 6–7 February 2018 Page 9 of 12  The proportion of pupils who have SEN and/or disabilities is below the national average. However, the proportion supported with a statement of special educational needs or an education, health and care plan is above that seen nationally. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ achievement and progress. The school offers before and after school wraparound care. This provision is managed by the governing body.
