Check the area around this school
187th of 252 primary schools in North Yorkshire we can score, 290 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 — 1.7/10 against 2,762 of them, against 2.1/10 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.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 55.0 · 27 | 40% | 1.10 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Strengths
- Reading is a “real strength,” with early phonics introduction and effective support for those finding it hard to learn.
- Behaviour is “exceptional,” with pupils following routines “calmly and purposefully” and instances of poor behaviour being rare.

- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities are supported effectively through tailored plans and external partnerships.
- A nurture provision helps vulnerable pupils manage mental health challenges in a “calm and nurturing” environment.
Areas to improve

- Some teachers’ subject knowledge is not fully secure, resulting in pupils developing misconceptions that are not spotted and corrected.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
