About Elm Park Primary School

Elm Park Primary School in South Gloucestershire holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections. The school’s most informative exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stood at 58% in the 2023/24 academic year. This places the school just below the local authority average of 61% for primary schools. Nationally, Elm Park ranks in the 62nd percentile, and within the South West it sits in the 56th percentile. The school’s Progress 8 scores are not available, but its average scaled scores in reading and maths are both 105, which is in line with the national average. Ofsted’s graded inspection in 2016 rated leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness all as Good, and the ungraded inspection in February 2025 confirmed that standards have been maintained.
