School overview

Firfield Primary School is a primary school serving Derby, Derbyshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. It has 412 pupils aged 5 to 11 on roll. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 60% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — broadly in line with the national average of 61%. That is down 5.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 36% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 14% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Firfield 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 further down the page.
