Information about this school

The Bredon Hancock's Endowed First School is smaller than the average primary school.

All of the children in the Reception class attend full time. Most pupils are from a White British heritage. At around 15%, the proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs is above average.

A small number of pupils, about 5%, are supported by the additional pupil premium funding. This is well below the national average. The extra funding is for disadvantaged pupils who are known to be eligible for free school meals or looked after by the local authority.

As this is a first school, there are no government floor standards setting the minimum expectations for pupils' attainment and progress. The headteacher provides support to another primary school in the local authority. The school has a number of after-school clubs.
