About Long Marton School

Long Marton School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections. In its most recent ungraded inspection in July 2024, inspectors confirmed the school remains Good, while also awarding an Outstanding rating for leadership and management. The most telling academic metric comes from the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results. Just 31% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which is significantly below the Westmorland and Furness local authority average of 58%. This places the school at 91st out of 99 primary schools in the area, putting it in the bottom half of the local rankings. The data suggests that while the school is well-led, academic attainment in core subjects is an area where outcomes are notably lower than those of nearby peers.
