Check the area around this school
60th 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.
Narrow the comparison to the 3,267 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.3/10 among them, against 2.8/10 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 | 55.0 · 27 | 40% | 1.10 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| 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 Patrington CofE Primary Academy
Overview
This inspection found that Patrington CofE Primary Academy is a ‘nurturing village school’ where pupils are happy and display ‘positive behaviours’. The report confirms that the school’s overall effectiveness is ‘Good’, marking an improvement from its previous rating. Leaders have successfully redesigned the curriculum to be ‘ambitious for all pupils’, resulting in high attendance and effective support for those with special educational needs.
Strengths
- The curriculum is ‘sequenced in a logical order’ with knowledge that ‘builds in complexity over time’, helping pupils remember more.
- Staff ‘adapt their lessons effectively’ to meet the needs of all learners, including those with SEND, who ‘progress well’.
- Attendance is ‘above national averages’ due to ‘robust and effective procedures’.
- Pupils feel safe, with access to trusted adults and mechanisms like the ‘I wish my teacher knew’ box to report concerns.
- Personal development is ‘wide ranging’, with pupils taking on leadership roles such as the ‘Pupil Parliament’.
Areas to improve
- In some areas, including early years, ‘activities chosen to deliver the curriculum are not as effective as they could be’, limiting pupil progress.
- In parts of the early years curriculum, the ‘sequence of learning and the vocabulary... is not clearly identified’, meaning activities are not ‘sharply focused’ on what children need to learn.
Safeguarding
The report states that ‘the arrangements for safeguarding are effective’.
