Canterbury Road Primary School
Sittingbourne, ME10 4SE · Kent · primary school
275th 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 — 4.6/10 against 2,038 of them, against 3.9/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 67.0 · 57 | 40% | 2.28 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Ofsted rated the school Good in April 2024.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Drawing, Disney Appreciation, Art Club, Nature Explorers, Archaeology Club, and Eco Club, alongside Rapid Fire Cricket, Dynamo Cricket, Netball, Football, and Dance. The school also organises off-site residentials. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.
Getting in. With 209 pupils in a school with 210 places, there is 1 spare place. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who need extra help to reach the higher standard? What are the specific dates for the off-site residentials? How do parents manage the lack of wraparound care before and after school hours?
