This is an average-sized primary school. The vast majority of pupils are from White British heritage. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils who are therefore eligible for support through the pupil premium funding is lower than that found nationally. (The pupil premium is additional funding for pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals and children who are looked after by the local authority.) The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs who are supported through school action is average. The proportion of pupils supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is below average. Kirkbymoorside Community Primary School has enhanced provision for children who have speech, language and communication needs. The staff employed in this unit, which is part of the school, provide support for other schools in the local authority through outreach work, and for pupils who have been referred to the unit. During the inspection there were no pupils attending the unit.
