Elm Grove Primary School

About Elm Grove Primary School

Elm Grove Primary School in Brighton and Hove holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections, including an ungraded visit in 2023 that confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling academic metric for this primary school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 52 per cent. That figure is below the local authority average of 59 per cent for similar schools, and it places Elm Grove 32nd out of 40 primary schools in Brighton and Hove. In national terms, the school sits in the bottom half of all primaries for this combined measure. The picture is more mixed when you look at individual subjects: 78 per cent of pupils met the expected standard in reading, and 63 per cent did so in writing, but maths was weaker at 61 per cent. Only 2 per cent of pupils reached the higher standard across all three subjects.
