Newburn Manor Primary School
Newcastle upon Tyne, NE15 8PD · Newcastle upon Tyne · primary school
10th of 63 primary schools in Newcastle upon Tyne we can score, 72 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 9.9/10 against 1,518 of them, against 9.4/10 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 | 86.0 · 95 | 40% | 3.79 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 21.0 · 93 | 25% | 2.32 |
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, 86.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 21.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.4 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join dodgeball, multiskills, and gymnastics clubs, and visit sites including Housesteads Roman Fort and Kielder Residential.
Getting in. There are 203 pupils in a school with 210 places, leaving 7 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With no breakfast or after-school club, how do parents manage care before and after the school day? How does the school support pupils who need extra help to reach the higher standard? How does the school maintain its Good rating while operating near capacity?
