About Beeston Fields Flying High Academy

Beeston Fields Flying High Academy is a primary school in Nottinghamshire, classified by the DfE as a sponsor-led academy. Around 363 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 68% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above 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 26% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 14% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Beeston Fields Flying High Academy was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 46 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 6.3%. There are about 17.2 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 44% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Beeston Fields Flying High Academy 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.
