About Hallam Primary School

Hallam Primary School sits well above the Sheffield local authority average for primary schools when it comes to Key Stage 2 outcomes. The LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 57%, but at Hallam that figure jumps to 78%. That gap of 21 percentage points is significant and places the school 6th out of 106 primary schools in Sheffield, comfortably inside the top 10% nationally. The school also outperforms on the higher standard, with 8% of pupils reaching that level compared with a typical LA picture that tends to be much lower. These headline metrics suggest a school that is consistently delivering strong academic results, and the ranking data backs that up — Hallam sits in the top 25% of schools nationally for its Key Stage 2 combined expected standard score.
