Amberley CofE Primary School
Arundel, BN18 9NB · West Sussex · primary school
85th of 193 primary schools in West Sussex we can score, 226 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 — 5.3/10 against 2,446 of them, against 4.5/10 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) 2022/23 | 50.0 · 19 | 62% | 1.17 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2022/23 | 17.0 · 87 | 38% | 3.35 |
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 2022/23, 50.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 62%. The higher standard was reached by 17.0%. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.5 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. The school has 45 pupils in a building with 70 places, leaving 25 spare spots. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the national median in core subjects? What does a typical day look like for a child in a class smaller than the building’s capacity? How does the school engage parents in their child’s learning journey?
