Kirby Hill Church of England (VC) Primary School
York, YO51 9DS · North Yorkshire · primary school
131st 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 4,356 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.5/10 among them, against 6.2/10 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 | 71.0 · 68 | 40% | 2.73 |
| Ofsted | 10 | 35% | 0.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 7.0 · 51 | 25% | 1.27 |
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, 71.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in April 2026. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.5 out of 10 among them, against 6.2 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Pupil-led Games, Sewing, Multi-Sports, Forest School, Art & Crafts, and Choir clubs, plus Girls and Boys Football. The school offers residential trips, a breakfast club, and an after-school club.
Getting in. With 120 pupils in a school built for 150, there are 30 spare places. 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 who are not yet meeting the expected standard in maths? What specific activities take place during the Forest Club sessions? How do the breakfast and after-school clubs integrate with the main curriculum?
