About Peters Hill Primary School

Peters Hill Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results comfortably outpace the Dudley local authority average, with 69% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 59%. That ten-percentage-point gap places the school in the top 30% of primary schools in Dudley, ranked 20th out of 69. The school also performs strongly on the higher standard: 11% of pupils achieved the higher benchmark across all three subjects, while 28% hit the higher standard in reading and 25% in maths. These figures suggest a school that is consistently delivering above the norm for its area, particularly given that it educates a large cohort of 753 pupils — well above the typical primary size — and serves a community where 17.7% of children are eligible for free school meals, slightly above the national average.
