Middleton Primary and Nursery School
About Middleton Primary and Nursery School
Middleton Primary and Nursery School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained since its most recent graded inspection in 2013 and confirmed by an ungraded visit in 2023. The most telling academic metric for this large Nottingham primary is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard score: 65% of pupils met this benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That places the school above the Nottingham local authority average of 60%, a solid performance in a city where only six out of 74 primary schools achieve an Outstanding Ofsted rating. Within the local authority, Middleton ranks 25th out of 72 schools on this combined measure, putting it in the top half of Nottingham primaries. Nationally, it sits in the 43rd percentile, meaning it outperforms a little under half of all primary schools in England.
