Ofsted: Outstanding · 2022 Inspected 4 years ago Mixed Primary
9.1/10 Well above average

1st of 76 primary schools in Dudley we can score, 78 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 — 9.6/10 against 2,023 of them, against 8.9/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 87.0 · 96 40% 3.85
Ofsted 96 34% 3.32
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 13.0 · 78 25% 1.95

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, 87.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 13.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in June 2022. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.6 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.9 out of 10 against all schools).

Getting in. The school has 247 pupils in a building with 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 37. Places are competitive because the school is over its stated capacity.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 37 more pupils than its official capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths? How has the Outstanding rating from 2022 been maintained since the last inspection?
