Academy conversion letter

This inspection rating relates to a predecessor school. When a school converts to an academy, is taken over or closes and reopens as a new school a formal link is created between the new school and the old school, by the Department for Education. Where the new school has not yet been inspected, we show the inspection history of the predecessor school, as we believe it still has significance.

Information about this school

Henley Primary School is smaller than the average-sized primary school. There are just four classes.

All pupils are taught in mixed-age groups. Nearly all pupils are White British. The proportion of pupils eligible for the pupil premium is well below average, at around 7%.

This premium is additional government funding which supports pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and those in local authority care. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs is around 22%. This is above average.

The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectation for pupils' attainment and progress. The headteacher is seconded one day a week as part of the 'Suffolk Learning Partnership'. This is to provide support to a range of local schools.
