Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School
Faversham, ME13 9AW · Kent · primary school
86th of 425 primary schools in Kent we can score, 460 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 — 9.1/10 against 3,040 of them, against 8.4/10 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 | 74.0 · 76 | 40% | 3.02 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 26.0 · 96 | 25% | 2.41 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 74.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 26.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in March 2025. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.4 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Young Voices and the School Choir, and receive 1:1 music lessons. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. There are 209 pupils in a school with 210 places, leaving 1 spare place. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 1 place remaining, how does the school handle waiting lists for new starters? How are the 1:1 music lessons scheduled to avoid disrupting core subjects? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the expected standard?
