Orgill Primary School

Egremont, CA22 2HH · Cumberland · primary school

Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Needs attention Mixed Primary
1.4/10 Well below average

112nd of 119 primary schools in Cumberland we can score, 145 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 — 1.5/10 against 2,591 of them, against 1.8/10 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
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 46.0 · 14 40% 0.55
Ofsted 8 35% 0.26
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 2.0 · 24 25% 0.60

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, 46.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 2.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in March 2026. 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 (1.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 1.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Getting in. The school has 228 pupils in a building with 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 18. Consequently, places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity? What support is available for pupils who have not yet reached the expected standard? How does the school plan to improve attainment in the coming year?
