About Ashfield Park Primary School

Ashfield Park Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit noticeably below the Herefordshire local authority average for primary schools. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 63 per cent, Ashfield Park achieves 55 per cent. That eight-point gap places the school 45th out of 68 primaries in the county, putting it in the bottom half of local schools. The picture is mixed when you look at individual subjects: 71 per cent of pupils meet the expected standard in reading and 74 per cent in writing, but maths is weaker at 63 per cent. Only 8 per cent of pupils reach the higher standard across all three subjects, compared with a national picture where roughly one in ten typically do. The school’s average scaled scores are 102 for reading and 101 for maths, both just above the national baseline of 100, so while the headline combined figure lags the LA average, the core skills are broadly in line with expectations.
