Sharrow Nursery, Infant and Junior School
About Sharrow Nursery, Infant and Junior School
Sharrow Nursery, Infant and Junior School in Sheffield holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. In its 2024 ungraded inspection, the school was confirmed to remain Good, with leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness all rated Good. The most telling academic metric comes from the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results: 55% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits just below the Sheffield local authority average of 57%, placing the school 59th out of 106 primary schools in the area. While the school is not among the top performers locally — its ranking falls in the bottom 50% nationally — the data shows a mixed picture, with reading and writing both hitting 71% for expected standards, and maths at 67%.
