About Flookburgh CofE Primary School

In the local authority’s primary school rankings, it sits at 70th out of 121 schools, placing it in the bottom half of the table. The top-performing peers in the area are Yarlside Academy, St Mary’s Catholic Primary School in Ulverston, and Staveley CofE School, all of which score significantly higher on the same ranking metric.
