Hawes Primary School

Hawes, DL8 3RQ · North Yorkshire · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary
6.8/10 Above average

48th of 252 primary schools in North Yorkshire we can score, 290 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 7.8/10 against 4,351 of them, against 7.8/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 75.0 · 78 40% 3.11

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 75.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 13.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in December 2024. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (7.8 out of 10 either way).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join a Zumba club, participate in multi-sports, and go on residential trips. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 52 pupils in a building with 105 places, leaving 53 spare spots. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils during the morning before lessons start, given there is no breakfast club? What specific activities are included in the multi-sports programme? How are the residential trips organised for families who may need additional support?
