Driffield School and Sixth Form is a much larger than average-sized secondary school, although the number of pupils on roll has reduced since the previous inspection. The vast majority of pupils are White British with a very small number of pupils from other backgrounds. The proportion of pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds for whom the school receives additional funding is below average. The proportion of pupils who require support for their special educational needs is low and the proportion of pupils with statements of special educational needs or education, health and care plans is above average. A higher proportion of pupils than typical stay in the school rather than leave mid-year or mid key stage. The school supports a small number of pupils to attend the following alternative providers: Vision Motor Training and East Riding College, Bridlington. The school provide classroom facilities for 16 to 19 learners from Kingsmill School. These learners share the lunchtime facilities with Driffield pupils and take part in some shared lessons in physical education (PE) and drama. The school meets the government’s floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress at the end of Key Stage 4.
