Mansfield, NG18 3DG · Nottinghamshire · primary school

Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Needs attention Mixed Primary
0.8/10 Well below average

220th of 229 primary schools in Nottinghamshire we can score, 286 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 1.1/10 against 1,372 of them, against 1.1/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 44.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (1.1 out of 10 either way). Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in March 2026.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils visit Hathersage, Hucklow, and Keswick. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 298 pupils in a capacity of 315 places, leaving 17 spare spots. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. With the most recent inspection in March 2026, what specific actions are being taken to address the "Requires improvement" rating? How does the school support pupils who are not yet meeting the expected standard in core subjects? Since there is no breakfast club, what options exist for early morning care?
