The school has approximately 250 pupils. The upper school has four year groups with 1 or 2 classes in each one.

Year 6: Children who are 10–11 years old.) and the first letter of the teacher's surname who teaches that class e.g. Year 3 + Mr Smith = Class "3S". The current Head Teacher is Mrs Diane DeWolf.
