Flanderwell Primary School
Rotherham, S66 2JF · Rotherham · primary school
25th of 84 primary schools in Rotherham we can score, 96 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 3.3/10 among them, against 4.1/10 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 | 68.0 · 60 | 40% | 2.41 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| 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.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 68.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in June 2026. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.3 out of 10 among them, against 4.1 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils enjoy singing, ukulele, guitar, One Voice, opera, and ballet, alongside Lego therapy and a lunch club.
Getting in. With 373 pupils in a school with 420 places, there are 47 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What provision exists for children arriving late to school, given there is no breakfast club? How does the curriculum balance the wide range of arts activities with core academic subjects?
