Asby Endowed School
About Asby Endowed School
Asby Endowed School, a state primary in Westmorland and Furness, holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained consistently across its two most recent inspections. The most recent ungraded inspection in June 2024 confirmed the school remains Good, with leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness all rated Good. With just 16 pupils on roll against a capacity of 42, this is an exceptionally small school where class sizes are tiny by default. The most telling academic metric is the school’s Key Stage 2 performance, which sits at 58% of pupils meeting the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. That figure is exactly in line with the local authority average for Westmorland and Furness, meaning pupils here achieve outcomes typical for the area. For a school of this size, where statistical fluctuations can be large, matching the LA average is a solid result.
