About Harrington Junior School

Harrington Junior School, a state primary in Erewash for children aged 7 to 11, holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in 2017 and an ungraded visit in 2022 that confirmed the school remains Good. This marks a clear improvement from its previous inspection in 2015, when it was rated Requires Improvement. On the most telling academic metric available, the school’s Key Stage 2 results for 2023/24 show that 54% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits just below the Derbyshire local authority average of 59%, placing Harrington 18th out of 25 primary schools in the Erewash district and in the bottom half nationally. The school’s overall ranking score of 54 reflects this, though the picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects.
