About Ramsgate Arts Primary School

Ramsgate Arts Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. The school's most informative exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 60%. This figure is slightly below the Kent local authority average of 63%, placing the school 248th out of 459 primary schools in the county. In the more local Thanet context, it ranks 16th out of 25 schools on this measure. The school's reading and writing scores are stronger than its maths results: 73% of pupils met the expected standard in reading and 77% in writing, compared with 67% in maths. At the higher standard, 10% of pupils achieved the top level across all three subjects, with reading and maths each seeing around a quarter of pupils reaching that threshold.
