Sheriff Hutton Primary School

School overview

Sheriff Hutton Primary School is a primary school serving North Yorkshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. It has 94 pupils aged 2 to 11 on roll. At its most recent graded inspection, Ofsted rated Sheriff Hutton Primary School 'Good'. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 62% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — broadly in line with the national average of 61%. That is down 7.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year, though small year groups can make these figures swing sharply from year to year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it around the middle of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 104 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 8% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Sheriff Hutton Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 12 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 4.4%. There are about 18.8 pupils per teacher. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
