Hellifield Community Primary School
Skipton, BD23 4HA · North Yorkshire · primary school
239th 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.
Narrow the comparison to the 4,355 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.6/10 among them, against 1.6/10 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 | 50.0 · 19 | 62% | 1.17 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 38% | 0.40 |
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, 50.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. No pupils reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.6 out of 10 among them, against 1.6 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Lego, iPad, craft, table top games, and Art Clubs, alongside Multi Sports, Football, and Sportscool. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 77 pupils in a building with 105 places, leaving 28 spare spots. This means there is real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than the school is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to progress from the expected standard to the higher standard? What specific strategies are used to improve reading and maths outcomes? How do the small class sizes affect individual attention during lessons?
