About Harlow Green Community Primary School

Harlow Green Community Primary School holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a grade it has maintained across both its graded inspections. The most informative single exam metric is the Key Stage 2 combined measure: 63% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, which sits just one percentage point below the Gateshead local authority average of 64%. That places the school 32nd out of 61 primary schools in the borough, in the middle of the pack. In maths specifically, 83% of pupils reached the expected standard with an average score of 105, while reading and writing expected rates were 75% and 78% respectively. The proportion reaching the higher standard across all three subjects was 10%, matching the writing higher-pace figure. The school’s national ranking sits around the 49th percentile, indicating a broadly average performance relative to schools across England.
