Duke of Norfolk CofE Primary School

Glossop, SK13 7RD · Derbyshire · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
3.3/10 Below average

186th of 263 primary schools in Derbyshire we can score, 353 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 the 4,166 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.3/10 among them, against 2.3/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 44.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 5.0% reached the higher standard. The school was rated Good by Ofsted in July 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.3 out of 10 among them, against 2.3 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join clubs including Basketball, Arts & Crafts, Photography with iPads, Comic & Book Club, Forest Fun, Pottery, Dance & Yoga, and Cross Stitch. Sports activities include Bikeability, Little Bikers, Forest School, and Glossop Jog. Trips include visits to Robin Wood. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.

Getting in. The school has 304 pupils in a capacity of 330 places, leaving 26 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the expected standard in literacy? What specific strategies are used to raise attainment from the current 44.0%? How does the school manage the transition for pupils moving from Year 6?
