Swansfield Park Primary School
About Swansfield Park Primary School
Swansfield Park Primary School sits in Northumberland, where the average Key Stage 2 score across the local authority is 56. The school’s own KS2 results are not published in the available data, so a direct numerical comparison isn’t possible, but its most recent Ofsted inspection in December 2023 rated the overall quality of education as Good. That places it in the broad middle band of the county’s 127 primary schools, only nine of which currently hold an Outstanding rating. The school’s previous inspection, in 2011, rated it Outstanding overall, so the shift to Good represents a notable change. Every graded category in the latest inspection — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — was judged Good. That consistency across all areas suggests a reliable, if not exceptional, standard. For parents comparing against the LA average, this is a school that performs solidly but without the headline-grabbing scores of the top three ranked primaries in the area, such as Eastlea, Belsay, or St Aidan’s.
