About St Edmund's CofE (C) Primary & Nursery School

St Edmund's CofE (C) Primary & Nursery School in Mansfield sits comfortably above the local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 70% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to a Nottinghamshire average of 61%. That nine-point gap places the school in the top half of primary schools nationally, ranking 5th out of 27 schools in Mansfield and in the top 30% of all primaries in the East Midlands. The school's Progress 8 data is not available, but its average scaled scores of 103 in both reading and maths suggest pupils are performing broadly in line with national expectations. The school has held a Good rating from Ofsted since its 2016 graded inspection, and an ungraded inspection in 2021 confirmed it remains Good, with leadership and management, early years provision, and behaviour all judged Good. This is a significant improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2014, indicating a sustained upward trajectory under headteacher Anthony Bandy-Webb.
