The school is larger than the average-sized primary school. Children in the early years attend full time. Most pupils are White British. Very few pupils come from minority ethnic backgrounds or speak English as an additional language. The proportion from minority ethnic backgrounds is increasing in the early years. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for support through the pupil premium is well below average. The pupil premium is additional government funding for those pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals and for looked after children. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs is just above average. The school meets the government’s floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress at the end of Year 6. The headteacher has been in post since July 2014. Since the last inspection, the deputy headteacher has taken over responsibility for leading the early years. The school is working in partnership with a Hall Meadow, a school that is part of the Inspire Teaching School Alliance, to provide training and support for teachers. The headteacher at Hall Meadow is a National Leader of Education. The school receives support from a Local Leader of Education at the St Luke multi-academy trust. Plans are in place for the school to become part of the St Luke multi-academy trust, in September 2015. The building work to extend classrooms in the early years was completed at Easter.
