Mixed Primary
3.8/10 Broadly average

59th of 88 primary schools in Doncaster we can score, 98 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 4.5/10 against 1,801 of them, against 3.8/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 63.0 · 46 62% 2.85
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 2.0 · 24 38% 0.92

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, 63.0% 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. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (4.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join music clubs and choirs, participate in the daily mile, hockey, athletics, and swimming, and attend performances by Music For Youth, Opera North, and The Royal Ballet. Trips include White Post Farm, Yorkshire Wildlife Park, Conisbrough Castle, and a residential at Gulliver’s Kingdom. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.

Getting in. The school has 394 pupils in a building with 296 places, meaning it is over capacity by 98. This means places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the high demand for places given it is significantly over capacity? What specific support is offered to pupils who do not reach the expected standard in maths? How are the daily mile and sports activities integrated into the weekly timetable?
