About Townville Academy

Townville Academy, a state primary in Wakefield for children aged 3 to 7, received a Requires Improvement rating from Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection in January 2023. This was a consistent outcome with its previous inspection in 2019, which also rated the school as Requires Improvement overall. However, the breakdown reveals a more nuanced picture. While the overall effectiveness, quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership and management all scored the lowest grade of 3 (Requires Improvement), the school’s early years provision and personal development were both rated Good (grade 2). This suggests that while the school is struggling with core academic delivery and pupil conduct, the youngest children and the broader development of pupils are areas of relative strength. For a school of just 121 pupils, these mixed results point to a setting where foundations are in place but significant improvement is still needed.
