Errington Primary School

Redcar, TS11 7BL · Redcar and Cleveland · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
5.6/10 Broadly average

20th of 43 primary schools in Redcar and Cleveland we can score, 44 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 — 6.6/10 against 2,881 of them, against 5.9/10 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, 64.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, matching the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 12.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (6.6 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.9 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Quidditch, a magazine club, outdoor and adventurous activities, gardening, computing, games, art, and knitting clubs. Sports include football, gymnastics, golf, multi-skills, netball, construction, and chess. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 216 pupils in a capacity of 240, leaving 24 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific steps are taken to maintain the Good Ofsted rating following the 2023 inspection? How are the 24 spare places managed during the academic year?
