Blagdon Primary School
Bristol, BS40 7RW · North Somerset · primary school
25th of 57 primary schools in North Somerset we can score, 64 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 — 5.9/10 against 4,152 of them, against 5.9/10 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
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 61.0 · 41 | 40% | 1.66 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 17.0 · 87 | 25% | 2.18 |
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, 61% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared with the national median of 64%. 17% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in December 2023. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (5.9 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils access a wide range of activities, including Gardening, Korean, Street Dance, Chess, and Eco Club. Sports options cover Netball, Football, Cricket, and Cross-country running, alongside Music Tuition. Trips include Forest Schools and 30 Days Wild. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 94 pupils in a building with 119 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 expected standard in maths? What specific support is available for children who need help settling into the smaller class sizes? How are the various clubs, such as Korean or Street Dance, scheduled to avoid conflicts with core lessons?
