About this school
St John's CofE Primary School is a Church of England primary academy in Nottingham. It teaches children aged 4 to 11.
Ofsted has not yet inspected St John's CofE Primary School under its current framework. Numbers and a report only go so far, so visit in person before you apply.
Ofsted judgement
St John's CofE Primary School has not been inspected by Ofsted yet. It opened in its current form in July 2026, and new or converted schools usually wait a few years for their first inspection.
Before converting it was St John's CofE Primary School. The history below belongs to that predecessor school, not to the school as it runs today.
Predecessor school: St John's CofE Primary School (closed June 2026)

Results reflect each school's cohort as much as its teaching, and free school meals share is context, not a judgement. Small gaps between neighbouring schools are rarely meaningful on their own.
