Edale Rise Primary & Nursery School

Nottingham, NG2 4HT · Nottingham · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
5.2/10 Broadly average

32nd of 74 primary schools in Nottingham we can score, 75 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 6.7/10 against 1,255 of them, against 5.2/10 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, 62.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 10.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (6.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.2 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Dance Club and Knitting Club. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 237 pupils in a building with 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 27. Consequently, places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the transition for children when the student population exceeds the physical capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the expected standard in maths? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support families with varying work schedules?
