Financial year: 2023/24 (the year label used by DfE; these totals equal the DfE return for that year). Academy trust accounts return (AAR), academy financial year (this school is an academy). DfE schools financial benchmarking via WhatSchool. These are real income and spending totals from the return, not derived. The comparison card below uses the latest year held (2024/25). England means and the years of data held by DfE are in the cards below.

Same return and year as above (financial year 2023/24). Shares are of total spending. The teaching and support staff line is the DfE teaching staff, supply teaching staff and education support staff lines added together, so in the same year it is usually larger than the "Teaching staff, share of spending" figure in the DfE comparison, which counts teaching staff only. The comparison card may be for a later year. "Other" is total spending less the lines listed (worked out by subtraction), so it can include catering, supply cover and other costs the source does not itemise. Premises is maintenance only, not rent or rates.

Financial year 2024/25. Academies Accounts Return (AAR), academy financial year. England mean: the simple average of 7,363 primary schools on the same basis and year, not weighted by pupil numbers. A school with a different mix of pupils, staff or buildings will spend differently, so a gap is not good or bad in itself. Shares are percentages of total spending.

Years use the labels in the publisher file names and tool (written yyyy/yy). CFR years are school financial years (April to March, so 2025/26 ends 31 March 2026). AAR years are academy accounting years ending 31 August (so 2024/25 is September 2024 to August 2025). The two bases are not the same period and are never mixed in one series.

Academies Accounts Return (AAR), academy financial year. "Income less spending" is income minus spending (a negative figure means spending was higher than income). England mean per pupil: primary schools, same basis and year. Money is in the cash terms of each year, not adjusted for inflation.
