St Wilfrid's CofE Primary School
About St Wilfrid's CofE Primary School
St Wilfrid's CofE Primary School in Gedling holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025, but the detail beneath that headline tells a more nuanced story. Inspectors judged both early years provision and personal development to be Outstanding, while quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership and management were all rated Good. On the key academic metric for primary schools, 60% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined in the 2023/24 KS2 assessments. That figure sits just below the Nottinghamshire local authority average of 61%, and places the school 22nd out of 32 primary schools in Gedling. Nationally, it ranks in the 57th percentile among 13,686 schools. The school's average scores in reading and maths both sit at 105, exactly in line with the national expectation, though only 3% of pupils reached the higher standard across all three subjects.
