Sheffield Schools ranked 2024: City's top 16 primaries based on pupils' grasp of reading, writing and maths

Here are the top 16 primary schools based on children’s grasp of ‘The Three Rs’

These are the Sheffield schools where the values of reading, writing and ‘”rithmatic” (maths) have been taken to heart by their pupils.

The best performing primary schools in Sheffield have been ranked based on the latest data from the Department of Education.

We’ve analysed government ratings to reveal the Sheffield primary schools where pupils are hitting the national “standard” for reading, writing and maths scores for 2022-23.

It’s a measure of what percentage of pupils at each school have shown they have grasped the essentials.

Considering the national average for this is 66 per cent, it’s amazing then that the number one school in Sheffield - Oughtibridge Primary School - has a score of 90 per cent.

There are other highlights in the rankings too. The Government also tracks how many pupils are reaching the “higher standard” and showing they are the brightest of the bright.

Considering the average for this metric nationally is less than 10, it’s remarkable how Westways Primary School has a whopping 24 per cent of pupils hitting this higher standard.

The overall score takes into consideration the average marks and the percentage of pupils achieving at a higher standard and the overall percentage of pupils at the schools achieving their expected standard.

Take a look at the 16 best Sheffield schools based on the figures.
