Who goes here

94 pupils out of 77 places At or near capacity

Pupils eligible for free school meals: 10
% eligible for free school meals: 10.6%
Pupil mix: 2 in 10 (similar to the North West Leicestershire average)
English as an additional language: 3% (England 22%)

Staff

Teachers leaving each year

Teacher turnover: 9.7% a year (North West Leicestershire 12.8%, typical in England 13.9%)
Where they went: about 0% moved to another school, 100% 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

About this Behaviour status

We've asked this school for real behaviour figures under Freedom of Information and haven't had a response yet.

Across Leicestershire: suspensions by reason

Suspensions for sexual misconduct: 7 (0.1 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.2)
Permanent exclusions for sexual misconduct: 0
Suspensions for bullying: 3 (0.1 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.2)
Suspensions for abuse against sexual orientation or gender identity: 3 (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 Leicestershire (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.

Attendance

Overall absence: 3.9%
Persistently absent pupils: 6.6%
Data year: 2024/25

About persistent absence

A pupil is counted as "persistently absent" if they miss 10% or more of their possible school sessions - roughly one day in every two weeks. Schools and Ofsted both pay close attention to this figure specifically, since it can highlight a pattern the overall absence rate alone might hide.

SEN

No dedicated Unit or Resourced Provision

SEN Unit and Resourced Provision

Most mainstream schools don't have a dedicated SEN Unit or Resourced Provision - it isn't a mark against a school that doesn't, just a different kind of setup than one that does.

Pupils on SEN Support: 17.0%
Pupils with an EHC Plan: 6.4%
Data year: 2025/26

Most common needs - SEN Support

SEN support but no specialist assessment of type of need: 6 pupils
Social, emotional and mental health: 3 pupils
Speech, language and communications needs: 3 pupils
Specific learning difficulty: 2 pupils
Moderate learning difficulty: 1 pupil

Most common needs - EHC Plan

Social, emotional and mental health: 2 pupils
Speech, language and communications needs: 2 pupils
Autistic spectrum disorder: 2 pupils

About these SEND figures

These figures give a sense of the makeup of the school - they aren't a judgement on the quality of support provided.

Year 6 SATs ranking

Junior and primary schools in this area, ranked by the % of Year 6 pupils meeting the expected standard in reading, writing and maths (official DfE results, 2024/25). Schools with the same result share a place (shown as =). In small schools one or two children can move a school several places, so treat close positions as roughly equal.
