Staff
Teachers leaving each year
- Teacher turnover: 14.5% a year (Rossendale 13%, typical in England 13.9%)
- Where they went: about 29% moved to another school, 71% left state schools altogether (retirement, other careers, independent schools, abroad)
- Data years: 2022/23 to 2024/25 (average of 3 years, DfE school workforce census)
Teachers who moved school or left state schools in the year after each November, as a share of all the school's teachers. Some turnover is healthy – retirements, promotions, moving house. This is a small staff, so one or two teachers leaving moves the figure a lot.
Behaviour
Awaiting Data
Across Lancashire: suspensions by reason
- Suspensions for sexual misconduct: 9 (0.1 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.2)
- Permanent exclusions for sexual misconduct: 3
- Suspensions for bullying: 18 (0.2 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.2)
- Suspensions for abuse against sexual orientation or gender identity: 7 (0.1 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.0)
- Data year: 2024/25 (DfE suspensions and exclusions statistics)
These are figures for all state primary schools in Lancashire (the council area this school is in), not this school's own – the government doesn't publish them school by school. A suspension can have up to three reasons. Most sexual harassment between pupils never leads to a suspension, so these figures show only part of the picture.
