About Hurst Green Primary School

Hurst Green Primary School in Dudley holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained since its most recent ungraded inspection in 2023, where inspectors confirmed the school remains Good. The school’s most informative exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which sits at 61%. That figure is just above the Dudley local authority average of 59%, placing the school in the middle of the pack locally — ranked 34th out of 69 primary schools in the borough. In its previous graded inspection back in 2013, the school was rated Good overall, with leadership and management also judged Good. That represents a shift from its earlier Outstanding rating in 2010, when both leadership and early years provision were judged to be outstanding. The current headteacher, Kellie Wilson, leads a school that is slightly over capacity with 424 pupils against a capacity of 420, and 17% of pupils are eligible for free school meals.
