Summary

Britain Elementary is an elementary school located in Irving, Texas that serves grades PK-5 and has a student population of 608, with a predominantly Hispanic student body (84.05% in 2022-2023). The school is part of the Irving Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 822 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Britain Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with academic performance that is significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, only 32.5% of 3rd graders were proficient in STAAR Reading, compared to 48.85% statewide, and just 16.13% of 3rd graders and 19.72% of 4th graders met proficiency in STAAR Mathematics, compared to 40.86% and 44.67% statewide, respectively. The school's performance on STAAR Spanish assessments is also very low, with single-digit proficiency rates in most grade levels and subjects. Additionally, Britain Elementary has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 92.27% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Irving ISD, such as Keyes Elementary, Brown Elementary, and Schulze Elementary, also perform poorly on state assessments, with proficiency rates generally below the district and state averages. However, some schools like Gilbert F.M. Elementary and Uplift Education - Infinity Preparatory Pri (a public charter school) demonstrate significantly higher academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just the district and student demographics may be contributing to the low performance at Britain Elementary.
