About Coppice Valley Primary School

Coppice Valley Primary School sits almost exactly on the North Yorkshire average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 61% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths against a local authority average of 60%. That places it 104th out of 292 primary schools in the county, squarely in the middle of the pack. The school’s Progress 8 scores are not available in the data, but the raw attainment figures give a clearer picture: reading and writing both hit 71% at the expected level, while maths lags slightly at 74%. Where the school really stands out is in the higher-standard results — just 3% of pupils achieved the higher standard in both reading, writing and maths combined, and only 10% did so in maths alone. That’s a notable gap compared with the top-performing schools in the area, which score 95 or 100 on the ranking metric. For parents weighing up options, Coppice Valley is a solidly average performer in a strong local authority.
