Staff
Teachers leaving each year
- Teacher turnover: 0% a year (Derbyshire Dales 15.8%, typical in England 13.9%)
- 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 Derbyshire: suspensions by reason
- Suspensions for sexual misconduct: 17 (0.3 per 1,000 pupils; England 0.2)
- Permanent exclusions for sexual misconduct: 2
- Suspensions for bullying: 23 (0.4 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 Derbyshire (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.
