Check the area around this school
31st of 111 primary schools in East Riding of Yorkshire we can score, 123 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 — 5.2/10 against 3,752 of them, against 5.2/10 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 | 68.0 · 60 | 40% | 2.40 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 5.0 · 40 | 25% | 1.00 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Newport Primary School
Overview
Newport Primary School continues to be a good school, where pupils feel happy, safe, and proud to belong. Leaders maintain high expectations for academic achievement, fostering an inclusive environment where pupils behave well and understand right from wrong. The school offers a broad curriculum with valuable opportunities for personal development, including residential trips and after-school clubs.
Strengths
- Pupils love to read and benefit from carefully planned lessons, with those at risk of falling behind receiving targeted support to catch up.
- The new curriculum is well thought through, ensuring new knowledge builds on prior learning, particularly in subjects like mathematics.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are fully included and supported sensitively to access the full range of subjects.
- Children in Reception show excellent concentration and independence, prepared well for Year 1 through collaborative ‘rota days’ with older pupils.
- Staff listen to and act on pupils’ worries quickly and with compassion, creating a cohesive team that prioritises pupil well-being.
Areas to improve
- Learning activities in lessons do not consistently match the planned curriculum, meaning pupils do not always gain the required knowledge for their next steps.
- Systems for checking how well the curriculum is delivered are not as effective as they could be, leading to inconsistencies in delivery across some subjects.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
