About St Swithun's Church of England Primary Academy

St Swithun's Church of England Primary Academy in Bassetlaw was rated Requires Improvement in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022, a downgrade from its previous Good rating in 2015. The inspection report graded every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — as requires improvement, each scoring a 3. This matters most when you look at what children are achieving by the time they leave.

In maths, 55 per cent met the expected standard, and no pupils achieved the higher standard. The school’s average reading score was 99, and its average maths score was 101.
