About South Kilworth Church of England Primary School

South Kilworth Church of England Primary School was rated Good across all five categories in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a consistent outcome given it also held a Good rating in its previous inspection in 2014. The most telling exam metric for this small primary is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stood at 60% in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure is just two percentage points below the Leicestershire local authority average of 62%, placing the school in the middle of the pack nationally — 56th percentile among all primary schools. Within the Harborough district, it ranks 18th out of 32 schools on this measure. The school’s individual subject results are notably stronger in writing, where 90% of pupils met the expected standard, and reading, where 80% did, while maths saw 80% reach that benchmark. Higher-standard attainment was more modest, with 30% of pupils achieving the higher level across all three subjects.
