Information about this school

Pulloxhill is a small school.

Pulloxhill School converted to become an academy on 17 August, 2011. When its predecessor school, Pulloxhill Lower School, was last inspected by Ofsted, it was judged to be outstanding. This is one of two separate schools that forms the Greenfield and Pulloxhill Academy.

There is a single executive headteacher of both schools. Most pupils are of White British heritage. The remainder come from a wide variety of minority ethnic backgrounds.

The proportion of pupils for whom the school receives the pupil premium (additional government funding for pupils eligible for free school meals, those in care and other groups) is below the national average. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs supported through school action is average. The proportion of pupils supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is also average.
