Old Ford Primary School is a very large primary school. The proportion of pupils taking free school meals is very high. Most pupils are from minority ethnic backgrounds, a substantial majority being Bangladeshi. The majority speak English as an additional language. Most of these pupils begin school with little or no English. The proportion of pupils with learning difficulties is average. These difficulties largely relate to literacy, including speech, language and communication, and emotional and behavioural needs. A small number of pupils have a disability. Pupil mobility is high. The headteacher leads another local primary school following an agreement between the two and the Local Authority. The school has numerous national and local awards and has been designated a National Support School by the National College of School Leadership.
