About Green Oaks Primary Academy

Green Oaks Primary Academy in West Northamptonshire was rated Good by Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection, a significant improvement from its previous Inadequate rating. The school’s most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 52%. That figure is below the local authority average of 63% and places the school 107th out of 147 primary schools in West Northamptonshire. In national terms, it sits in the bottom half of all primary schools. However, individual subject results tell a more nuanced story: 89% of pupils met the expected standard in writing, and 78% did so in maths, while reading was lower at 67%. The average scores in reading and maths both sit at 104, exactly in line with the national average. The proportion of pupils reaching the higher standard in any of the three subjects is small — 4% in writing and the combined measure, 19% in reading and 22% in maths.
