About St Nicholas Church of England Primary School
St Nicholas Church of England Primary School in Rochford holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections. The most recent graded inspection took place in 2010, with an ungraded visit in 2019 confirming the school remains Good. In that 2019 visit, inspectors noted that leadership and management, as well as the overall effectiveness, continued to meet the Good standard. The school’s early years provision, however, was rated as Requires Improvement in the 2010 graded inspection, and this area has not been reassessed in a graded capacity since. With 140 pupils on roll, just shy of its 145 capacity, the school serves a mixed-gender, Church of England community. The most telling academic metric available is the local authority’s Key Stage 2 average of 62 per cent reaching the expected standard, though St Nicholas’s own KS2 results are not published in this data set.
