About Stathern Primary School

Stathern Primary School holds an Ofsted rating of Outstanding, a grade it earned in its most recent inspection in 2023, where it received top marks across every category including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management. The school’s academic story is best told through its Key Stage 2 results from the 2023/24 academic year, which show a mixed picture. While 60% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths combined, this figure sits just below the Leicestershire local authority average of 62%. However, the school performs strongly in individual subjects: 90% of pupils reached the expected standard in maths, and 80% did so in reading. At the higher standard, 20% of pupils achieved in all three subjects, with maths again leading at 50% and reading at 40%. Nationally, Stathern ranks in the 57th percentile among primary schools, placing it in the bottom half of schools in the Melton local authority area, where it sits 9th out of 18 schools.
