Ofsted

Our last Ofsted inspection took place in June, 2025. The inspection was an ungraded (Section 8) visit, during which inspectors found clear evidence that the school has improved significantly in all areas: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, leadership and management and personal development. The inspector was overwhelmingly positive about our school and, as a result, our next inspection will be a full graded (Section 5) inspection. This is a strong endorsement of the quality of education, care, and support we provide.

Our Performance

We are very proud of our pupils' achievements at Drayton Park and we annually reach outcomes which are well above National averages. In 2025, we achieved fantastic results:

END OF KEY STAGE 2

Year 6 children take national tests called SATs (Statutory Assessment Tests) in May. Our results have been above national and local averages for several years. This year, they are well above national averages in all subjects and in our combined reading, writing and maths (RWM) result. 

PHONICS RESULTS FOR YEARS 1 and 2

Children complete the Phonics Screening Check at the end of Year 1. For those who do not pass in Year 1, they are re-tested in Year 2.

MULTIPLICATION TABLES CHECK (MTC)

Year 4 children sit a national online multiplication check where they are tested on 25 questions from the 2 to 12 times tables under timed conditions, with 6 seconds to answer each question. 

The government publish our results and compare them to national averages on the Department for Education website. Please view the page for Drayton Park here.
