About Inglewood Junior School

Inglewood Junior School’s headline KS2 results sit slightly below the Cumberland average for primary schools, though not dramatically so. In the 2023/24 academic year, 52% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a local authority average of 54%. That places the school 61st out of 111 primary schools in Cumberland, putting it in the bottom half of the LA ranking. The gap is modest, but it’s worth noting that the school serves a significantly disadvantaged intake: 42.2% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. Given that context, the results are arguably respectable, though they don’t push the school into the top tier locally — the top three schools in the LA all scored 86 or above on the same metric.
