Ofsted: Good · 2026 Inspected this year Mixed Primary Church of England
3.7/10 Broadly average

94th of 139 primary schools in West Northamptonshire we can score, 148 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 4,299 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.8/10 among them, against 2.8/10 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 2024/25, 53.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 4.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2026. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.8 out of 10 among them, against 2.8 out of 10 nationally.

Getting in. The school has 225 pupils in a capacity of 240, leaving 15 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. With 15 places remaining, how quickly do these fill up during the academic year? Since the inspection was recent, what specific improvements have been made since the 2026 visit? How does the school support pupils who are below the expected standard in core subjects?
