About Lickey End First School

Lickey End First School is a state primary in Bromsgrove that outperforms the local authority average on a key academic measure, though the data is limited. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024 rated it Good overall, with every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership, and early years provision — all marked Good. This is a notable improvement from its previous inspection in 2021, when the school was rated Requires Improvement across the board. While the local authority average for Key Stage 2 attainment sits at 61, Lickey End’s own KS2 results are not published in this dataset, so a direct comparison isn’t possible here. However, the school’s Progress 8 score is also absent, meaning parents will need to rely on the Ofsted report for a fuller picture of academic progress. What is clear is that the school has turned around its performance in just over two years, moving from a rating of 3 to a 2 in every inspected area.
