The school is smaller than the average-sized primary school. The proportion of pupils for whom the school receives the pupil premium is below average. This is additional government funding for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and those who are looked after by the local authority. Most pupils are White British. The number of pupils from minority ethnic groups or with English as an additional language is below average. The percentage of pupils with special educational needs or disability is broadly average. The nursery provision is available in the mornings only, on a part-time basis. The school provides a breakfast club and an after-school club. In 2015, the school did not meet the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress. The school has received support from the headteacher of Morven Park Primary School, who is a local leader in education. A partnership between the two schools is developing and staff from both schools work together to share good practice. The school is also part of the local teaching school alliance. The headteacher was initially seconded to the school for a temporary period, but was appointed to the permanent post of substantive headteacher. This will take effect from September 2016. The school does not meet requirements on the publication of specified information on its website.
