Check the area around this school
124th of 229 primary schools in Nottinghamshire we can score, 286 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 4,024 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.7/10 among them, against 4.3/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 69.0 · 63 | 40% | 2.51 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Everton Primary School
Overview
Everton Primary School is described as a place where "pupils and staff get on well" and relationships are "consistently positive." The report highlights that leaders have driven "significant improvements" in leadership and curriculum, resulting in a "good quality of education" for pupils.
Strengths
- Pupils demonstrate strong behaviour and pride in their belonging to the "FOREVER Team," guided by the school’s "Ever Ten" values.
- The phonics programme is "implemented well," enabling pupils, including the least-able readers, to "quickly master phonics and begin to read fluently."
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) "thrive," supported by an SENCo who ensures staff have an "expert understanding" of their needs.
- Personal development is "well catered for" through a planned PSHE programme and a wide range of extra-curricular activities.
- The governing body’s work is "well organised and systematic," with governors who "routinely challenge and support leaders."
Areas to improve
- The reading curriculum is "not fully sequenced" and lacks precision regarding what pupils should learn at each stage.
- In a small number of subjects, the curriculum intent is "too broad," failing to clearly define the key knowledge pupils must remember.
- Senior leaders lack a "secure enough understanding" of high-quality early years education, hindering their ability to hold the early years team accountable.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are "effective," with a culture where safeguarding is the "highest priority" and all staff know the policies well.
