About Levens CofE School
Levens CofE School is a primary school in Kendal, Westmorland and Furness, classified by the DfE as a voluntary controlled school with a Church of England religious character. Around 102 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 38% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well below the national average of 61%. 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 107 in reading and 99 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 13% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Levens CofE School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 13 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 3.2%. There are about 15.9 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 8% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Levens CofE 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.
