Rockland St Mary Primary School
About Rockland St Mary Primary School
Rockland St Mary Primary School has turned a corner. In its most recent Ofsted inspection, carried out in 2022, the school was rated Good overall, a clear improvement from its previous inspection in 2015 when it was judged to Require Improvement. Every category assessed in 2022 — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — was rated Good. That consistency across the board suggests a school that has found its footing. The school is small, with 83 pupils on roll against a capacity of 69, and it serves a mixed cohort from age 2 to 11. The headteacher, Hannah Boag, leads a team that has clearly focused on raising standards. While the data does not include specific Key Stage 2 SATs results for the school, the local authority average for KS2 attainment sits at 52, giving a useful benchmark for parents looking to compare outcomes once individual school results become available.
