St Thomas More Voluntary Catholic Academy
About St Thomas More Voluntary Catholic Academy
St Thomas More Voluntary Catholic Academy sits below the local authority average for its key stage 2 headline measure, with 55% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with an LA average of 65%. That places it 72nd out of 106 primary schools in East Riding of Yorkshire, in the bottom half of the local table. The school’s ranking score of 55 puts it well behind top local peers like Bricknell Primary School (90) and Collingwood Primary School (89). However, the picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects. Reading scores are a relative strength: 83% of pupils met the expected standard and 21% reached the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 105. Maths and writing are weaker, with 72% and 69% meeting the expected standard respectively, and no pupils achieving the higher standard in maths. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022 rated it Good overall, a clear improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2013, with leadership and management and early years provision both judged Good.
