About Ringway Primary School

Ringway Primary School in Northumberland has been rated Good by Ofsted in its most recent inspection, a grade it has held consistently across both its 2019 and 2024 inspections. The school's strongest academic metric comes from Key Stage 2 results for the 2023/24 year, where 77% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure places Ringway well above the Northumberland local authority average of 56%, and ranks it 6th out of 58 primary schools in the area — comfortably within the top 25% nationally. The school's overall ranking score of 77 reflects solid performance across the board, though it sits just behind local peers Eastlea, Belsay and St Aidan's Catholic Primary, which all scored 80 or above.
