About Staveley Junior School

Staveley Junior School in Chesterfield holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained consistently across its two most recent inspections in 2013 and 2023. The most telling academic metric for this 7-11 primary is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 62 per cent. That figure sits just above the Derbyshire local authority average of 59 per cent, placing the school in the middle of the pack locally — ranked 109th out of 353 similar schools in the county. In the Chesterfield area specifically, it comes 11th out of 25 primaries. The school’s overall score of 62 on this measure puts it in the bottom half nationally, though it is worth noting that individual subject results are stronger: 76 per cent of pupils met the expected standard in reading, and 71 per cent did so in writing.
