Quotes from The Inspection Report for Cayley Primary School in London, which took place in June 2009.

This primary school is much larger than average. Half of the pupils are known to be eligible for free school meals; this is very high. Almost all of the pupils are from minority ethnic backgrounds, predominantly Bangladeshi. There are slightly more pupils who have learning difficulties and statements of special educational needs than usual. More pupils leave and join the school throughout the school year than in most schools. Often those joining the school speak little or no English.

Overall effectiveness of the school: Grade 1
When the school was inspected in 2006 it was judged to be outstanding. Pupils made exceptional progress in their academic and personal development. This continues to be the case…
There is a trend of improving standards over the last few years, although there are fluctuations in national test results caused by the movement of pupils in and out of the school. Some of the pupils who join the school in the later years of primary education speak little or no English. Overall standards have risen above average largely due to very strong results in English in 2007 and 2008. Given the very low levels of attainment on entry to school this represents excellent achievement.
