This is a broadly average sized primary school. The proportion of pupils with special educational needs is above average. An additionally resourced provision for pupils with speech, language and communication difficulties, including autism, is managed by the school. This is known as the ARC. It caters for 10 pupils aged three to seven. Pupils have dual registration. They are on the roll of Scawsby Rosedale and also on the roll of their mainstream school. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils, those supported by the pupil premium, is broadly average. The pupil premium is additional funding the school receives to support those pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals and those who are looked after by the local authority. Most pupils are of White British heritage. The proportion of pupils from ethnic minority groups is smaller than that found typically, as is the proportion who speaks English as an additional language. In 2014, the school did not meet the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in reading, writing and mathematics by the end of Year 6. Part-time early years provision is provided in the Nursery class and full-time provision is provided in the Reception class. The headteacher took up post in April 2014. She was formerly the deputy headteacher and special educational needs leader. A new deputy headteacher and acting assistant headteacher were appointed in September 2014, from amongst the substantive school staff. Over half of the teaching staff joined the school after the previous inspection. The school has recently had an external review of governance and an external review of its use of the pupil premium funding. The governing body was reconstituted in March 2015. The most recent monitoring inspection carried out by one of Her Majesty’s Inspectors in January 2015 found that senior leaders, governors and the local authority had not taken effective action to tackle the areas for improvement as identified at the previous inspection.
