About Walkington Primary School

Walkington Primary School’s key stage 2 results put it well ahead of the local authority average for primary schools in East Riding of Yorkshire. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined sits at 61%, Walkington’s figure is 88% — a substantial gap that places the school third out of 106 primaries in the area, and in the top five per cent nationally. This strong showing is consistent across individual subjects: 100% of pupils met the expected standard in writing, 97% in maths and 91% in reading. The school also performs strongly at the higher standard, with 39% of pupils reaching that level in reading and 36% in maths, though the combined higher-standard figure is a more modest 3%. These results suggest a school that reliably delivers solid core skills for the vast majority of its pupils.
