Duckmanton Primary School
About Duckmanton Primary School
Duckmanton Primary School holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022, a grade it has maintained consistently across both its graded inspections. What stands out most in the inspection report is that the school achieved Outstanding ratings in two key areas: personal development, and behaviour and attitudes. This suggests a school where children’s character and conduct are given as much weight as their academic progress. The school’s overall effectiveness, quality of education, early years provision, and leadership and management were all judged Good. With a nursery provision for children aged two and a full primary age range up to 11, Duckmanton serves the Chesterfield area in Derbyshire, and is led by headteacher Emma Levers.
