Grangetown Primary School
Middlesbrough, TS6 7JA · Redcar and Cleveland · primary school
28th 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 — 7.4/10 against 153 of them, against 4.7/10 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 | 58.0 · 35 | 40% | 1.39 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 10.0 · 66 | 25% | 1.65 |
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, 58.0% 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 March 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (7.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.7 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join arts and crafts, film, and storytelling clubs, as well as termly competition sports. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 284 pupils in a building with 266 places, meaning it is over capacity by 18. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the waitlist given it is currently over capacity? What specific support is provided for pupils who have not yet reached the expected standard in maths? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support daily routines?
