About Westglade Primary School

Westglade Primary School sits in the middle of the pack in Nottingham, ranking 30th out of 74 primary schools in the local authority. Its headline Key Stage 2 metric — 63% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths — is a whisker above the Nottingham average of 60%. That three-point gap is modest, but it matters more when you consider the school’s intake: half of its 230 pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. The school is also oversubscribed, with 46 applications for 23 places in 2025/26, and every first-preference family secured a spot. So while it’s not an academic powerhouse on paper, Westglade is clearly a popular choice among local families who value something beyond raw scores.
