About Doveridge Primary School

Doveridge Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained since its most recent graded inspection in 2013 and confirmed in an ungraded inspection in 2022. The school's most informative exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2, which sits at 56%. This is just below the Derbyshire local authority average of 59%, placing the school in the bottom half of primary schools nationally. However, individual subject results tell a more nuanced story: 78% of pupils met the expected standard in both reading and maths, with an average maths score of 104 and a reading average of 103. Writing was the weaker area, with 67% reaching the expected standard and no pupils achieving the higher standard, compared with 22% in maths and 11% in reading.
