About Mount CofE Primary School

Mount CofE Primary School is a primary school in Newark, Nottinghamshire, classified by the DfE as a converter academy with a Church of England religious character. Around 204 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. 24% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well below the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 3.0 percentage points compared with 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 102 in reading and 95 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Mount CofE Primary School their first choice was offered one of its 15 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 15.1%. There are about 24.1 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 38% 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. Mount CofE 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.
