The school serves an area of very high social disadvantage. It has higher proportions of pupils from minority ethnic backgrounds and for whom English is not their home language than in the great majority of schools. The proportion of pupils with learning difficulties and disabilities is higher than in most schools. A higher proportion of pupils join or leave at unusual times than in most schools. This is partly due to the close proximity of a women's refuge and temporary housing for immigrant families. Since September 2006, there have been two co-headteachers who each carry out the role for three days per week, overlapping for one day.
