About Edlington Victoria Academy

Edlington Victoria Academy, a state primary in Doncaster for children aged 3 to 11, holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in 2020, a standard it has maintained across both its graded inspections. The school’s most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 performance in reading, writing and maths combined. In the 2023/24 academic year, 75% of pupils met the expected standard in all three subjects, placing the school 14th out of 87 primaries in the Doncaster local authority – comfortably within the top 25% nationally. This result sits well above the local authority average of 61%, suggesting the school is delivering solid outcomes for its pupils. An ungraded inspection in February 2025 noted that the school had improved significantly since its previous visit, with inspectors awarding Good across all five categories including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, and personal development.
