About Saint Joseph's Catholic Primary School, A Catholic Voluntary Academy

Saint Joseph's Catholic Primary School in Redcar and Cleveland has been rated Outstanding by Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in 2017, a significant leap from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2014. The school's leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness all received the top grade, and an ungraded inspection in November 2024 confirmed that standards have been maintained. On the academic front, the most telling metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined: 85% of Year 6 pupils achieved this in the 2023/24 assessments. That figure sits well above the local authority average of 65% for primary schools, and it places Saint Joseph's 4th out of 41 primary schools in Redcar and Cleveland, putting it in the top 10% nationally. In individual subjects, 90% of pupils met expectations in both maths and writing, while 85% did so in reading. Average scaled scores of 108 in both reading and maths also point to solid, above-average attainment across the board.
