Ofsted: Outstanding · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
9.4/10 Well above average

2nd of 70 primary schools in Kingston upon Hull, City of we can score. 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 — 9.8/10 against 1,561 of them, against 9.3/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Getting in. The school has 222 pupils in a capacity of 262, leaving 40 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 not yet meeting the expected standard in maths? What specific activities are included in the Enterprise club? How does the school manage class sizes with 40 spare places available?
