Treeton Church of England Primary School

About Treeton Church of England Primary School

Treeton Church of England Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections in 2022 and 2016. The 2022 inspection awarded Good across every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — with no weaker ratings anywhere. But the most telling academic metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2: 72% of Treeton’s Year 6 pupils achieved this benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure sits comfortably above the Rotherham local authority average of 60%, placing the school 21st out of 84 primary schools in the area — comfortably inside the top quarter. Nationally, Treeton ranks in the 26th percentile among all state primaries, a solid, above-average showing that reflects consistent classroom performance rather than headline-grabbing extremes.

Digging deeper into the Key Stage 2 results, Treeton’s strongest subject is reading, where 83% of pupils reached the expected standard and 41% achieved the higher standard — nearly twice the proportion that reached the higher bar in maths (24%) or writing (14%). Average scaled scores tell a similar story: reading sits at 107, maths at 105, both above the national baseline of 100. The combined expected standard figure of 72% is the school’s headline ranking metric, and it’s worth noting that this is a school that performs well without being flashy — it doesn’t appear among Rotherham’s top three primaries (St Alban’s, Whiston Worrygoose and Roughwood all score higher), but it’s a reliable, above-average choice. There are no Progress 8 scores available for primary schools, so direct value-added comparisons aren’t possible, but the raw outcomes suggest pupils leave Treeton well prepared for secondary school.

Treeton is a Church of England primary with nursery provision for children from age three, and it’s clearly a popular choice: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 76 applications for 39 places, with 38 first-preference offers made — an oversubscription ratio of nearly 2:1. The school caters for a mixed cohort, with 14.6% of pupils eligible for free school meals, and offers a broad range of SEND support including provision for dyslexia, speech and language needs, hearing and visual impairments, autistic spectrum disorder, and social, emotional and mental health needs. Facilities include art studios, music rooms, a gymnasium, playing fields, an ICT suite and even a chapel, while extracurricular options span coding, drama, choir and chess, plus sports like cricket, football, rounders and athletics. For families seeking a solid, well-regarded state primary in Rotherham with a Christian character and strong core results, Treeton is a sensible, data-backed option.
