School context
Four Dwellings Primary Academy was originally a separate infant and junior school. We amalgamated in 2003 to become a 2 form entry primary school with a nursery, teaching 3 year olds through to 11 year olds. We converted to academy status under Academies Enterprise Trust. Quinton is a diverse ward economically, with a mix of private and council housing. Compared to other schools in the Quinton Ward, FDPA is situated within a more deprived pocket, as our PP percentage (ranging from 66% to 72%) indicates. Current figures: SEND:
10.61% of the pupil population are SEN Support (77.78% of the SEN cohort)
3.03% of the pupil population have EHCPs (22.22% of the SEN cohort)
EAL:41.08%
FSM:56.96
