St Benedict's Catholic Primary School - a Catholic voluntary academy
York, YO62 4DE · North Yorkshire · primary school
121st 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 3,485 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.6/10 among them, against 4.4/10 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 | 70.0 · 65 | 40% | 2.62 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| 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, 70.0% 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. An Ofsted inspection in 2023-11 rated the school Good. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.6 out of 10 among them, against 4.4 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Sport, Capoeira, and Gardening clubs, play football, netball, and cricket, and visit Monk Park Farm. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 91 pupils in a capacity of 105 places, leaving 14 spare spots. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What specific activities take place during the after-school club? How does the school manage the transition for new families given the current pupil numbers?
