Around 187 pupils aged 5 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. 61% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, broadly in line with the national average (national figure: 61%).

Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
