About Gamston St Peter's CofE Primary School

Gamston St Peter's CofE Primary School is a primary school in Retford, Nottinghamshire, classified by the DfE as an academy converter with a Church of England religious character. Around 106 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. 69% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 19.0 percentage points compared with 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 in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 104 in reading and 106 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 8% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. 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.
