Tweeddale Primary School
About Tweeddale Primary School
Tweeddale Primary School’s headline KS2 results sit well below the Sutton local authority average, which is 69% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. At Tweeddale, just 40% of pupils hit that combined benchmark, placing the school 32nd out of 33 primary schools in the borough. That gap is significant and worth noting for parents comparing options. The school’s Progress 8 scores for reading, writing and maths are all missing from the data, so it’s hard to say whether pupils are making typical progress from their starting points. However, the individual subject scores give a clearer picture: 58% reached the expected standard in reading, 57% in maths, and 48% in writing. Higher-attaining pupils are a small minority — only 17% achieved a high score in reading, 10% in maths, and 5% in writing. Just 2% of pupils reached the higher standard across all three subjects. These figures suggest a school where the majority of children are working at or below the expected level, and where stretching the most able is a clear area for development.
