Ark Tindal Primary Academy
Birmingham, B12 9QS · Birmingham · primary school
52nd of 259 primary schools in Birmingham we can score, 293 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 — 9.4/10 against 747 of them, against 7.9/10 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 | 78.0 · 84 | 40% | 3.36 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| 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, 78.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 11.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in April 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.9 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join debating and basketball clubs, or learn violin, ukulele, and choir. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 459 pupils in a school with 459 places. It is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage entry when it is at full capacity? What support is available for pupils who do not reach the expected standard? How does the after-school club operate for families without a breakfast option?
