This primary school is of much smaller than average size and serves a rural part of North Cornwall. The proportion of pupils with special educational needs supported by school action is average, while the proportion who are supported by school action plus is below average. These pupils have a range of needs, mainly moderate learning difficulties. There are currently no pupils with statements of special educational needs. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for the pupil premium is average. The pupil premium provides additional funding for children in local authority care, pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and children of families in the armed services. No pupils who currently qualify for this funding have subsequently left the school. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress. In 2012, the governing body changed the status of the school from voluntary controlled to voluntary aided. This change was made mainly to allow greater flexibility of decision-making over matters such as the dates of school terms. The school has recently become an associate member of the Bude Community’s Schools’ Trust, which promotes and enables collaboration between local schools. In 2012, the governing body assumed management responsibility for the pre-school located on the school site. The pre-school was not inspected on this occasion.
