School Description

The school is smaller than the average primary school. The majority of pupils are of Pakistani heritage, about one third are White British and others come from a range of European and Asian heritages. More pupils move into and out of the school than the national average and many are international new arrivals, who know little or no English. The proportion of pupils supported by the pupil premium is well above the national average. The pupil premium is additional government funding to support pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals and those children who are looked after by the local authority. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs is just below the national average. Early years provision is housed in a separate building, and is part-time for children in the Nursery and fulltime for children in the Reception class. The school meets 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. The school offers a daily breakfast club. Since the time of the previous inspection, there have been a number of staffing changes, and new governor appointments, including the Chair of the Governing Body.
