Alver Valley Junior School
Gosport, PO13 8AA · Hampshire · primary school
203rd of 301 primary schools in Hampshire we can score, 423 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 4.4/10 against 1,403 of them, against 3.4/10 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 | 48.0 · 16 | 40% | 0.65 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 9.0 · 61 | 25% | 1.53 |
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, 48.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 9.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (4.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.4 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join cooking, Forest School, gardening, art, and singing clubs, and play football and netball. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 213 pupils in a capacity of 240, leaving 27 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the expected standard in maths? What specific activities take place during the after-school club? How does the Forest School curriculum link to the national curriculum?
