About Airmyn Park Primary School
Airmyn Park Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results place it well ahead of the local authority average, with 84% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to an East Riding average of 61%. That 23-point gap is significant and positions the school as one of the strongest performers in the area — it ranks 6th out of 106 primary schools in the local authority, placing it in the top 10% nationally. The school’s maths results are particularly striking: every single pupil (100%) met the expected standard, and 16% reached the higher standard. In reading, 84% met expectations and 21% hit the higher threshold, while writing saw 89% at expected and 11% at the higher level. These figures suggest consistent, strong teaching across the core subjects, with no obvious weak spot in the data.
The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in October 2022, confirmed it remains Good, the same rating it received in its last graded inspection in July 2013. Leadership and management were also judged Good. The previous graded inspection in 2008 had rated the school Outstanding overall, so the current Good rating represents a step down, but the 2022 visit found no reason to change that judgement. The school is small, with 106 pupils against a capacity of 112, and 10.4% of pupils are eligible for free school meals — slightly below the national average. There is no sixth form or nursery provision. The school’s Progress 8 scores are not available, so it’s not possible to compare how much value the school adds relative to pupils’ starting points, but the raw attainment figures are strong.
Airmyn Park offers a broad set of facilities including a library, ICT suite, art studios, playing fields, a sensory room and a forest school, which supports outdoor learning. Sports provision covers swimming, cricket, dance, athletics, rounders, gymnastics and tennis, while clubs include film, art, science, drama, choir and chess. The school has identified SEND support for specific learning difficulties (dyslexia), social, emotional and mental health needs, speech, language and communication needs, and autistic spectrum disorder. Admissions data for 2025/26 shows the school is oversubscribed: 32 applications for 7 places, with only 5 first-preference offers made, giving an oversubscription ratio of 4.57. This level of demand reflects its strong local reputation. It would suit families who prioritise academic attainment in a small, well-resourced primary with a clear focus on core subjects and a good range of enrichment activities.
