About Hollinswood Primary School

Hollinswood Primary School sits in the middle of the pack in Telford and Wrekin, with 61% of its Year 6 pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure is just two percentage points below the local authority average of 63% for primary schools, placing the school 24th out of 56 similar schools in the area. It’s a solid, unflashy performance that reflects a school doing a decent job without hitting the heights of the top performers like Moorfield or Newdale, which both score 85. The school’s national ranking places it in the bottom half of all primaries, at the 53rd percentile, so while it’s not setting the world alight, it’s also not struggling. What stands out more is the gap between its reading and maths results: 85% of pupils hit the expected standard in reading, compared with just 66% in maths, suggesting maths is the area where the school has more work to do.
