70th of 70 primary schools in Kingston upon Hull, City of we can score. 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 — 1.6/10 against 943 of them, against 1.4/10 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 | 35.0 · 5 | 40% | 0.20 |
| Ofsted | 3 | 35% | 0.10 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 3.0 · 29 | 25% | 0.73 |
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 Oldfleet Primary School
Overview
Oldfleet Primary School is described as a place where "positive relationships between staff and pupils are at the heart" of the community, with a strong commitment to supporting emotional needs. However, the report states that "pupils’ achievement does not match the school’s intentions," particularly in the early years and for older pupils requiring additional support in reading and mathematics. While personal development is rated Good, overall effectiveness requires improvement due to inconsistencies in curriculum implementation and attendance.
Strengths
- Staff know all pupils and families individually, ensuring everyone is "valued and included."
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive "highly effective support" with clear identification systems.
- The curriculum is "broad and balanced" and "well sequenced," with particular success in subjects like Art.
- Early reading is prioritised, with staff implementing the phonics programme "consistently and effectively."
- Pupils enjoy a "wealth of experiences," including residential visits and community projects.
Areas to improve
- Curriculum leaders must ensure they have time to check how well the curriculum is implemented and how pupils are achieving in all subjects.
- The school should address gaps in knowledge for older pupils in reading and mathematics more precisely.
- Systems to improve attendance and punctuality need further development to ensure parents understand their importance.
- Activities in the early years must be "precisely matched" to children’s learning needs to secure foundations for later learning.
- The new approach to behaviour management should be embedded to help pupils develop more positive attitudes towards school.
Safeguarding
The report states that "the arrangements for safeguarding are effective."
