Hob Green Primary School
About Hob Green Primary School
Hob Green Primary School’s headline metrics sit below the Dudley local authority average for primary schools, where 59% of pupils typically reach the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. At Hob Green, that figure is 48%, placing it 54th out of 78 schools in the borough and in the bottom 50 nationally. The school’s average maths score of 100 and reading score of 101 are both in line with the national benchmark of 100, but the proportion of pupils reaching the higher standard in any of the three subjects is just 10%, compared with a wider spread of attainment across the LA. The school’s ranking score of 48 reflects this gap, though it’s worth noting that the data comes from the 2023/24 academic year and may not capture more recent changes under headteacher Lucy Williams.
