Stowlawn Primary School
About Stowlawn Primary School
Stowlawn Primary School in Wolverhampton was rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection, a notable improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating. The school’s most informative exam metric is the Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, where 57% of pupils met the benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. This places the school below the Wolverhampton local authority average of 64%, and ranks it 42nd out of 60 primary schools in the area. However, the picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects: 80% of pupils reached the expected standard in maths, and 77% in writing, both strong figures. Reading was lower at 70%, and the proportion achieving the higher standard across all three subjects was just 7%. The school’s national ranking places it in the bottom 50% of all primary schools, at the 64th percentile.
