About Trotts Hill Primary and Nursery School

Trotts Hill Primary and Nursery School in Stevenage was rated Good by Ofsted following its most recent ungraded inspection in November 2022, a rating it has held consistently since its previous graded inspection in 2012. The school’s strongest academic metric comes from its Key Stage 2 results for the 2023/24 academic year: 82% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits well above the Hertfordshire local authority average of 64% for primary schools, and it places Trotts Hill first among 19 primary schools in the Stevenage area. Nationally, the school ranks in the top 9% of all primary schools on this measure. In terms of higher attainment, 18% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, while individual subject scores were notably strong: average scaled scores of 108 in both reading and maths, and 89% of pupils reaching the expected standard in both reading and writing.
