Wood End Primary School
About Wood End Primary School
Wood End Primary School in Wolverhampton holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent inspection in 2025, a grade it has maintained consistently since at least 2015. The most telling academic metric for this primary school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2, which stands at 53%. This places the school below the Wolverhampton local authority average of 64% and ranks it 48th out of 60 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the bottom 50% nationally. Individual subject scores tell a slightly more nuanced story: 70% of pupils met the expected standard in both maths and writing, while 67% did so in reading. However, only 3% of children reached the higher standard across all three subjects, and the school's overall ranking score of 53 reflects a significant gap to the top-performing local primaries like St Bartholomew's CE Primary School.
