Long Preston Endowed Voluntary Aided Primary School
Skipton, BD23 4PN · North Yorkshire · primary school
232nd 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 — 0.1/10 against 4,306 of them, against 0.5/10 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 | 25.0 · 2 | 41% | 0.07 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 34% | 1.73 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 26% | 0.27 |
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, 25.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (0.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 0.5 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Good in 2022.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Art Club, Sportscool, and Football. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 53 pupils in a capacity of 84, leaving 31 spare places. 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 who do not reach the expected standard in maths? What are the plans to improve outcomes in the next inspection cycle? How do you manage the transition for pupils without access to wraparound care before and after school?
