Almeley Primary School
Hereford, HR3 6LH · Herefordshire, County of · primary school
65th of 72 primary schools in Herefordshire, County of we can score, 78 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 3.0/10 against 3,548 of them, against 3.4/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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

|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 44.0 · 12 | 40% | 0.47 |
| Ofsted | 3 | 35% | 0.11 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 11.0 · 71 | 25% | 1.77 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 44% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 11% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in June 2026. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (3.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.4 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. The school offers both a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. There are 55 pupils in a school with 63 places, leaving 8 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school plan to raise attainment from 44% to the national median of 64%? What specific actions are being taken to address the "Requires improvement" rating? How do the breakfast and after-school clubs support pupils' learning and wellbeing?
