New Earswick Primary School
About New Earswick Primary School
New Earswick Primary School’s headline KS2 results sit below the York local authority average, with 50% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a LA average of 62%. That twelve-point gap places the school 37th out of 50 primary schools in York, putting it in the bottom half of the local league table. Nationally, it ranks in the 78th percentile among all primary schools, which suggests it is performing broadly in line with the lower end of the national distribution. However, the picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects. In reading, 82% of pupils met the expected standard and the average score was 106, while in maths 77% hit the expected mark with an average score of 104. Writing saw 73% reach the expected level. The school’s higher-achieving pupils are fewer: only 5% reached the higher standard across all three subjects, though 23% did so in maths alone.
