73rd of 82 primary schools in Coventry we can score, 85 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 4,279 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.9/10 among them, against 2.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 55.0 · 27 | 40% | 1.10 |
| Ofsted | 11 | 35% | 0.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Allesley Hall Primary School
Overview
Allesley Hall Primary School is described as a well-led institution with a strong culture of inclusion, kindness, and belonging. While safeguarding, attendance, and behaviour are rated at a "strong standard," academic achievement and teaching consistency are identified as areas requiring attention, with leaders actively working to raise expectations.
Strengths

- Attendance rates are above national figures, supported by clear systems and effective partnerships with families and the local authority.
- Behaviour is "calm and respectful," with bullying being rare and addressed promptly; pupils feel valued and safe.
- Inclusion is "at the heart of this school," with barriers to learning identified early and vulnerable pupils supported through trauma-informed approaches.
- Leaders are positive role models who are "receptive to external advice" and dedicated to the community’s best interests.
Areas to improve
- Leaders must improve the consistency of teaching to reduce variability and enhance pupils’ learning outcomes.
- The teaching of writing requires improvement so pupils develop accurate transcription skills and write with greater independence.
- Assessment practices need sharpening to ensure gaps in learning are "identified and addressed promptly, in the moment."
