Information about this school
This is a much smaller than average sized primary school. Children in the Early Years Foundation Stage are taught in one class; other pupils are taught in mixed-age classes, except for Years 5 and 6, which are taught in separate classes. Almost all pupils are of White British heritage.
The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs supported through school action is above average. The proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is well below average. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for the pupil premium, which is additional funding for looked after children, pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and children from service families, is very low.
There have been several changes to the teaching staff during the last two years. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress. There is a privately run pre-school on the school site, which has links with the school but is not managed by the governing body, and will be inspected separately.
