Hollywood Primary School

About Hollywood Primary School

Hollywood Primary School in Birmingham was rated Good by Ofsted in its most recent inspection in 2019, a notable improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating. The inspection report highlighted Good leadership and management, Good early years provision, and an overall Good effectiveness. However, the school’s most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard score: just 49% of pupils met this benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That places the school well below the Birmingham local authority average of 63% for primary schools, and ranks it 220th out of 254 primary schools in the authority — putting it in the bottom 50% nationally. Only 3% of pupils achieved the higher standard in reading, writing and maths combined, though individual subject scores were stronger: 70% reached the expected standard in reading and 75% in maths, with average scaled scores of 106 and 105 respectively.
