About Clavering Primary School

Clavering Primary School sits in a local authority where the average Key Stage 2 attainment score is 68, but the school’s own headline metrics tell a more nuanced story. While the LA average provides a useful benchmark, Clavering’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2019 rated it Good overall, with Good marks for early years provision, leadership and management, and overall effectiveness. That puts it in the majority of Hartlepool’s 30 state primary schools, only two of which are rated Outstanding. The school is oversubscribed by a significant margin — 85 applications for 38 places, a ratio of 2.24 to one — suggesting strong local demand. Its first-preference offer rate of 36 out of 36 first-preference applications indicates that almost every family who put it top got in, but the wider oversubscription figure shows many others missed out entirely. With 25.5 per cent of pupils eligible for free school meals, the school serves a community with above-average disadvantage, yet its Good rating and popularity suggest it is holding its own against the LA’s top performers.
