About New Invention Learning Academy

New Invention Learning Academy is a primary school in Willenhall, Walsall, classified by the DfE as an academy converter. Around 365 pupils aged 7 to 11 attend the school. 79% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has risen by 3.0 percentage points year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 21% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 108 in reading and 109 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 10% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). New Invention Learning 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. 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.
