Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The number of full-time equivalent (FTE) teachers employed at the school. Part-time teachers are counted proportionally (e.g. a teacher working 3 days counts as 0.6 FTE).

Teacher numbers typically reflect the size and funding of the school. A school with 3 FTE teachers is relatively small. Changes over time may indicate growth, budget pressures, or restructuring.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The number of full-time equivalent (FTE) teaching assistants employed at the school, including higher-level teaching assistants (HLTAs).

Teaching assistant numbers vary widely between schools. The number of TAs usually depends on the school's SEN population, funding, and teaching model.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The pupil-to-teacher ratio (PTR) divides the total number of pupils by the number of FTE teachers. It indicates how many pupils each teacher is responsible for on average, though actual class sizes may differ.

A lower pupil-to-teacher ratio often indicates smaller class sizes, which usually allows for more individualised attention.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: Teacher turnover rate shows the percentage of teachers who left the school during the academic year. This includes retirements, resignations, and transfers.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The percentage of pupils known to be eligible for free school meals (FSM). FSM eligibility is widely used as a proxy indicator for socio-economic disadvantage.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The percentage of pupils identified as having Special Educational Needs (SEN), including both SEN Support and those with Education, Health and Care (EHC) plans.

This SEN rate is within the typical range for most schools. The national average usually sits between 12–17%.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The percentage of pupils receiving SEN Support — the first tier of SEN provision, where additional help is provided within the school without an EHC plan.

This level of SEN Support is above the national average. The proportion often reflects how the school identifies and categorises additional needs.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The percentage of pupils with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan — the highest level of SEN support, involving a legally binding document specifying the provision required.

This EHC rate is within the normal range. Many mainstream schools have 1–3% of pupils with EHC plans.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The total number of school places available (capacity). This is the physical capacity based on the school's buildings and grounds.

A capacity of 84 places suggests a smaller school.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The total number of pupils on roll — the actual number of pupils attending the school.

The school currently has 43 pupils on roll. This figure can change from year to year based on admissions, in-year transfers, and demographic trends in the local area.

Cad a chiallaíonn sé seo: The percentage of pupils meeting the expected standard in Reading, Writing and Maths (RWM combined) at the end of Key Stage 2. This is the headline measure for primary school attainment.

Achieving above 75% at the expected standard is typically considered strong performance. Schools with lower deprivation often report higher attainment, though many schools in challenging contexts also achieve well.
