About Mansel Primary

Mansel Primary, a state primary in Sheffield, was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a rating it has held consistently across both its graded inspections. The school’s most informative exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2, which stood at 56% in the 2023/24 academic year. This figure sits just one percentage point below the Sheffield local authority average of 57%, placing Mansel in the middle of the pack locally — ranked 53rd out of 106 primary schools in the area. While the school does not have any pupils achieving the higher standard across all three subjects, individual subject results show 31% reached the higher standard in reading and 14% in maths, with average scaled scores of 105 and 104 respectively.
