About Wray with Botton Endowed Primary School

Wray with Botton Endowed Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent graded inspection in 2015 and an ungraded inspection in 2025 where inspectors confirmed standards were being maintained. But the real story here is in the numbers. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, 89% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a Lancashire local authority average of just 60%. That puts the school second out of 46 primary schools in the Lancaster area, and in the top 5% nationally. The school’s ranking score of 89 reflects strong performance across the board, with 100% of pupils meeting the expected standard in maths and 89% doing so in both reading and writing. At the higher standard, a third of pupils achieved that level across all three subjects, with maths and reading both hitting 67% at the higher threshold.
