Sheffield schools: Top 16 Sheffield primary schools ranked by latest academic progress results

These are the best-performing primary schools in Sheffield, according to the latest data available.

The Department for Education (DfE) has “ranked” each school based on the percentage of pupils who have met what is called the ‘expected standard’ in reading, writing and maths in 2023.

The expected standard is achieved when the student received a scaled score of 100 or more in their reading and maths tests, and their teacher assess them as “working at the expected standard” or better in writing.

However, the data shows Sheffield falling slightly short of the national average.

The average to meet this standard in England is 60 per cent, with eight per cent achieving at a higher standard.

In Sheffield, 57 per cent of pupils are meeting the standard and six per cent are hitting the higher standard.

However, it makes it all the more remarkable, then, when top-performing schools like Oughtibridge Primary report 90 per cent of their pupils meeting the standard while a huge 15 per cent are hitting the ‘higher standard.’

Here are the top 16 primary schools in Sheffield based on the results:
