About Jesse Gray Primary School
Jesse Gray Primary School in Rushcliffe holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections, including the most recent ungraded inspection in 2022 which confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling academic metric is the Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, where 83% of pupils met the benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure sits well above the Nottinghamshire local authority average of 61%, placing the school 11th out of 286 primary schools in the county. Within Rushcliffe itself, the school ranks 3rd out of 32 primaries, putting it in the top 10% of its immediate area. The school’s ranking score of 83 reflects strong performance, though it sits behind local peers John Blow Primary School, Harworth CofE Academy and Bunny CofE Primary School, which occupy the top three spots in the LA rankings.
