About Misterton Primary and Nursery School

Misterton Primary and Nursery School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained consistently across its two most recent inspections, with the latest full graded inspection taking place in 2022. The school’s most telling academic metric is the Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, where just 32% of pupils met the benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. This figure sits well below the Nottinghamshire local authority average of 61%, placing the school in the bottom 50 nationally for this measure. The breakdown shows particular challenges in maths, where only 48% of pupils reached the expected standard, compared with 60% in reading and 68% in writing. Higher-attaining pupils are also thin on the ground: 20% achieved a higher score in reading, 16% in maths, and none in writing. The school’s average scaled scores of 103 in reading and 101 in maths are modest, and there is no progress data available to show how pupils’ gains compare with peers nationally.
