About Shrubland Street Community Primary School

Shrubland Street Community Primary School sits below the Warwickshire local authority average for its key stage 2 headline measure, with 54 per cent of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined against an LA average of 62 per cent. That places the school 27th out of 33 primaries in the Warwick district, putting it in the bottom half locally and nationally in the 70th percentile. The gap is notable but not dramatic, and the school’s individual subject scores tell a more nuanced story: 86 per cent of pupils hit the expected standard in reading, well above the typical primary benchmark, while maths expected attainment sits at 75 per cent. Writing is the weaker link at 57 per cent expected, and only 11 per cent of pupils reached the higher standard in both writing and the combined RWM measure. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 judged it Good overall, with leadership and management also rated Good, a clear improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2012.
