About Silverhill Primary School

Silverhill Primary School sits within the Derby local authority, where it ranks 18th out of 58 primary schools on the key stage 2 expected standard measure. That places it comfortably in the top third of its local peers. The three highest-scoring schools in the area are Griffe Field Primary School, Gayton Junior School and St Mary's Catholic Voluntary Academy, all of which sit above Silverhill in the rankings. The school is a state-funded, mixed primary for children aged 4 to 11, with no religious character and no nursery or sixth form provision. It is led by headteacher Kiran Savage and currently has 423 pupils on roll, slightly above its official capacity of 420. Just 5 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well below the national average, which gives a sense of the school's intake.
