Information about this school
Holy Ghost is a little smaller than the average primary school.
A very small proportion of pupils are known to be eligible for the pupil premium, which provides schools with additional funding for children looked after by the local authority, for pupils known to be eligible for free school meals, and for those with a parent in the armed services. At Holy Ghost, nearly all of the pupils who qualify for the pupil premium do so through eligibility for free school meals. Around one third of pupils come from a wide range of minority ethnic heritages, and this proportion is a little higher than usual.
An average proportion of pupils speak English as an additional language. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs supported at school action is lower than average, as is the proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs. The school meets the government's current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress.
