Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2023 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
2.2/10 Below average

200th of 215 primary schools in Leicestershire we can score, 231 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 1,477 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.3/10 among them, against 3.3/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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 2023/24, 29.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 63%. Only 14.0% reached the higher standard. The school was rated Requires improvement in October 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.3 out of 10 among them, against 3.3 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. The school offers both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. With 39 pupils in a school with 70 places, there are 31 spare places. 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 plan to improve attainment from its current position? What specific support is available for pupils who are not yet meeting expected standards? How do the wraparound clubs integrate with the main curriculum?
