This school is larger than the average-sized primary school. More than a third of pupils are eligible for the pupil premium funding (additional government funding for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals or who are cared for by the local authority). This is higher than the national average. Almost all pupils speak English as their first language. The proportion of pupils who have special educational needs or disability is in line with the national average. Early years provision takes the form of three full-time reception classes and two part-time nursery classes, including provision for two-year-olds. The school does not meet the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress by the end of Year 6. The results of the Year 6 tests in 2013 were annulled by the Standards and Testing Agency due to allegations of maladministration. The previous headteacher resigned in 2014 and the school was led by three assistant headteachers until the current headteacher was appointed in November 2014. The Chair of the Governing Body has been in post for two weeks.
