Spring Meadow Primary School & Nursery
About Spring Meadow Primary School & Nursery
Spring Meadow Primary School & Nursery holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a judgement it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. The school’s most telling academic metric comes from its Key Stage 2 results, where 62% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. That figure places the school exactly on the local authority average for Essex, which also sits at 62%. While it doesn’t push into the territory of the highest-performing primaries in the area — such as St Thomas More’s Catholic Primary or Stambridge Primary, both of which top the local rankings — Spring Meadow is delivering solid, broadly typical outcomes for its pupils. The school serves children from age 2 through to 11, with a nursery on site, and is a mixed, state-funded primary in the Tendring borough. Headteacher Nicky Patrick leads a school with capacity for 382 pupils, and the Good rating suggests consistent quality across the board.
