About Windy Nook Primary School

Windy Nook Primary School is a primary school in Gateshead, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 348 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 67% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the national average of 61%. Results have held broadly steady on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 104 in reading and 104 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 2% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Windy Nook Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 34 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 5.7%. There are about 19.5 pupils per teacher. Windy Nook Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
