Mixed Primary
4.0/10 Broadly average

62nd of 107 primary schools in Sheffield we can score, 132 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 5.4/10 against 1,134 of them, against 4.0/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Get to know the school

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 45.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 15.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.0 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. The school does not currently name any specific clubs, sports, or arts activities for pupils.

Getting in. There are 233 pupils in a school with 235 places, leaving just 2 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With only 2 places remaining, what is the current waiting list length for new admissions? How does the school support pupils who are below the national median in literacy and numeracy? What specific support is available for children who need help catching up in the classroom?
