Selby, Longman's Hill Community Primary School
Selby, YO8 9BG · North Yorkshire · primary school
238th of 252 primary schools in North Yorkshire we can score, 290 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 4,028 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.0/10 among them, against 2.4/10 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 | 57.0 · 32 | 40% | 1.29 |
| Ofsted | 8 | 35% | 0.28 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
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, 57.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2026. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.0 out of 10 among them, against 2.4 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs including mindful colouring, lego, maths games, board games, samba band, Mad Science, STEM club, and Japanese club. Sports cover tennis, athletics, football, rugby, hockey, cross country, and multi skills sports. Arts and music include the Gardening Club and school choir. Trips visit Forest School, The Hepworth art Gallery, The Arboretum, The Yorkshire Sculpture Park, and Robinwood outdoor activity centre. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 200 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving 10 spare places. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With 10 places remaining, how does the school manage waitlists for new starters? How does the curriculum support pupils who are not yet reaching the expected standard? What specific support is available for children joining the after-school club?
