Clifton Green Primary School

York, YO30 6JA · York · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2022 Inspected 4 years ago Mixed Primary
3.5/10 Broadly average

37th of 47 primary schools in York we can score, 50 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 — 2.7/10 against 2,300 of them, against 2.6/10 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.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 51.0 · 21 40% 0.84

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, 51.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 4.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2022. 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 (2.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 2.6 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join sports with York City Football Club, York City Knights, and York Sports Club, or participate in arts and crafts and cooking. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.

Getting in. The school has 372 pupils in a building with 450 places, leaving 78 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the expected standard in maths? What specific activities do the sports partnerships offer for younger children? How does the breakfast club integrate with the morning curriculum?
