This is a large inner city primary school. Pupils come from a very wide range of ethnic backgrounds. The largest group, and a far higher proportion than is usual, have Bangladeshi backgrounds. Two thirds are at an early stage of speaking English. The range of first languages is very wide. The proportion of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities is above average, and high for those with statements of special educational needs. Most of these are related to dyslexia or social, emotional and behavioural difficulties, or difficulties in the autistic spectrum. The school has achieved several awards including Healthy Schools and Artsmark Gold. The Early Years Foundation Stage comprises a Nursery and two Reception classes. Extended schools activities include a breakfast club, several after-school clubs and a Saturday school. A children's centre opened in February 2007 on a separate site, managed by the governing body. It offers day care for children up to the age of five.
