About William Levick Primary School

William Levick Primary School sits comfortably above the Derbyshire local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 70% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to the LA average of 59%. That eleven-point gap is a meaningful indicator of solid academic performance for a state primary of this size. The school ranks 11th out of 35 primary schools in the North East Derbyshire district, placing it in the top third nationally by the same metric. While it doesn't match the top-scoring peers in its local area — Wessington, Redhill and Longford all achieved perfect ranking scores — Levick's results are clearly above the typical Derbyshire primary, and the school sits 67th out of 353 similar schools across the whole authority. For parents weighing up options in the region, this is a school that delivers consistently above the local norm without being among the absolute elite.
