About Estcourt Primary Academy

Estcourt Primary Academy sits in the top half of Kingston upon Hull primary schools, ranked 29th out of 69 in the local authority, but its headline results tell a more nuanced story. The school’s proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined sits at 70%, which is above the local authority average of 65%. That five-point gap is a meaningful one, and it places Estcourt in the top 50% of schools nationally for that measure. However, the picture is less straightforward when you look at the higher standard: only 11% of pupils achieved that top tier across the same three subjects, which is a modest figure. The school’s maths and reading average scores both come in at 105, which is solid but not exceptional. So while Estcourt is comfortably outperforming the Hull average on the basics, it’s not a school that pushes a large proportion of its pupils into the highest attainment brackets.
