About Westoe Crown Primary School

Westoe Crown Primary School in South Tyneside holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained since its most recent inspection in October 2023. The school’s most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, which sits at 64% of pupils. That figure is exactly in line with the local authority average for South Tyneside, placing the school 19th out of 37 primaries in the area. While it doesn’t break into the top tier locally — the nearest Outstanding school, Marine Park Primary, is just 0.7 km away — Westoe Crown is a solidly performing state primary that delivers exactly what the LA expects. Its national percentile ranking of 46th puts it in the middle of the pack across England, a fair reflection of a school that is reliable without being exceptional.
