About St Peter's Church of England Primary School

St Peter's Church of England Primary School in North Tyneside received a Requires Improvement rating from Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection in June 2023, a downgrade from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2019. The inspection report shows that every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — was judged as Requires Improvement, with behaviour and attitudes having previously been rated Good in 2019. On academic outcomes, the school's most telling metric is its Key Stage 2 performance. The local authority average for KS2 attainment sits at 62, and while St Peter's exact score isn't published in this data, the school's position relative to its peers suggests it faces a significant challenge. The top-performing schools in the area, such as Cullercoats Primary and New York Primary, both score 82, indicating the gap St Peter's needs to close.
