About Robin Hood Academy

Robin Hood Academy in Birmingham holds a Good rating from its most recent graded inspection in 2013, and an ungraded inspection in 2022 confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling academic metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2, which stands at 56%. This is below the Birmingham local authority average of 63%, placing the school in the bottom half of primary schools nationally, at the 66th percentile. Within Birmingham, it ranks 177th out of 254 schools on this measure. The school's Progress 8 scores are not available, but the average scaled scores in reading and maths are both 103, exactly in line with the national benchmark of 100. A relatively small proportion of pupils, 7%, achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, compared with 23% reaching the higher standard in maths alone.
