This is an average-sized primary school. Although the majority of pupils are White British, a high proportion is from minority ethnic groups and speak English as an additional language. The proportion of pupils who are eligible for pupil premium funding (pupils known to be entitled to free school meals, looked after by the local authority or from families in the armed services) is very high. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported at school action is very high, as is the proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in English and mathematics. The headteacher is a Local Leader of Education. The senior management team works with a group of local schools to improve leadership and management and share good practice. The governing body is responsible for day care setting and is the locality lead, responsible for three children's centres that were not part of this inspection.
