About Mansel Park Primary & Nursery School - Part of the Learning Federation Partnership of Schools
Mansel Park Primary & Nursery School has been rated Good overall by Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection, but the detail tells a more interesting story. Leadership and management were judged Outstanding, and early years provision was rated Outstanding too, which is a significant improvement from the previous inspection when the school was graded Requires Improvement overall. On the academic front, the most telling metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 88 per cent. That figure places Mansel Park first out of 42 primary schools in the Southampton local authority, putting it in the top five per cent nationally. It also sits well above the local authority average of 55 per cent for the same combined measure, so the school is clearly delivering strong results for its pupils.
