About Northlands Primary School

Northlands Primary School sits slightly above the Warwickshire local authority average for the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2. The school's figure of 64 per cent compares with a county average of 62 per cent, a modest but meaningful edge. That places Northlands 11th out of 28 primary schools in the Rugby area and 74th out of 196 across the wider Warwickshire authority. The school is also ranked in the top 50 per cent nationally for this metric. Given that more than a third of its pupils (34. 8 per cent) are eligible for free school meals — well above the national average — this above-par performance is worth noting. The school's most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in 2025, judged that it had improved significantly since its previous graded inspection, when it was rated Requires Improvement. It now holds a Good rating overall, with Good marks for early years provision, leadership and management, and the quality of education.
