About Tickhill St Mary's Church of England Primary and Nursery School

Tickhill St Mary's Church of England Primary and Nursery School has been rated Good by Ofsted, a significant improvement from its previous Requires Improvement judgement. In its most recent graded inspection in 2016, inspectors awarded Good across the board, including for leadership and management, and the school has maintained that standard through an ungraded inspection in 2021. The most telling academic metric comes from the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results, where 64% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits just above the Doncaster local authority average of 61%, placing the school 39th out of 87 primary schools in the area. While not among the top performers, it is a solid, above-average result for a relatively small school of 219 pupils, with a capacity of 210.
