Stanstead Flying High Academy
Nottingham, NG5 5BL · Nottingham · primary school
52nd of 74 primary schools in Nottingham we can score, 75 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 — 3.2/10 against 1,996 of them, against 3.0/10 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 | 54.0 · 26 | 41% | 1.05 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 34% | 1.74 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 4.0 · 35 | 26% | 0.90 |
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, 54% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 4% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in March 2022. 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 (3.2 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.0 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils play football.
Getting in. The school has 208 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving just 2 spare places. It is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 2 places remaining, what is the current waiting list length? Since the last inspection was in 2022, how has the school addressed the gap between its 54% expected standard and the national 64%? Are there plans to introduce breakfast or after-school clubs, as neither currently exists?
