Lady Bay Primary School
Nottingham, NG2 5BD · Nottinghamshire · primary school
13th of 229 primary schools in Nottinghamshire we can score, 286 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 — 9.4/10 against 3,795 of them, against 9.4/10 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.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 84.0 · 93 | 40% | 3.72 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 25.0 · 96 | 25% | 2.40 |
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, 84.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 25.0% reached the higher standard. 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 (9.4 out of 10 either way). Ofsted rated the school Good in December 2022.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the School Breakfast Club, Dragons After School Club, Lady Bay Tennis Academy, VCreate, Little Friends Oosc, Rugby All Stars, Sport4kids, and Toddler And Childrens Football Classes. Sports include Bricks 1, Bricks 2, Star Strike, Football Coaching, Walking Football, Karate Zone, Summer Hockey Club, and Little Wickets. Trips include Sundown.
Getting in. The school has 381 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 39 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 specific activities are included in the VCreate club? How does the school manage the transition for pupils moving to secondary education?
