About Wingrove Primary School

Wingrove Primary School in Newcastle upon Tyne holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections, including the most recent graded inspection in 2016 and an ungraded visit in 2022 that confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling academic metric for this primary school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 54%. This is notably below the local authority average of 63% for similar schools, placing Wingrove 42nd out of 55 primary schools in Newcastle upon Tyne. In the North East region, the school ranks 501st out of 677, and nationally it sits in the 69th percentile. The school’s ranking metric places it in the bottom 50% of schools nationally, a clear signal that while the school provides a solid standard of education, its academic outcomes are not among the strongest in the area.
