Check the area around this school
110th of 203 primary schools in Surrey we can score, 296 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 4,250 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.5/10 among them, against 5.5/10 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% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 7.0 · 51 | 25% | 1.27 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Charlwood Village Primary School
Overview
Charlwood Village Primary School continues to be a good school, where pupils flourish and feel valued as individuals. The inspection confirms that the school maintains high expectations for behaviour and learning, with a strong sense of community and pride among staff and pupils.
Strengths
- Pupils demonstrate "exemplary" behaviour and high engagement, supported by clear routines established from the early years.
- Early reading is taught consistently well, with a "sharp focus" ensuring the majority of pupils confidently read unfamiliar books.
- The curriculum is "well sequenced and ambitious," allowing pupils to confidently remember their learning in subjects like reading, writing, and mathematics.
- An "extensive range of trips and experiences" enhances learning, including a well-established leadership programme that empowers pupils to develop independence.
- The governing body provides "well-considered support and challenge," while staff workload and well-being are regularly reviewed.
Areas to improve
- The curriculum in a small number of subjects, such as history, is "not specific enough" regarding what pupils need to learn or how teachers will check retention.
- The school needs to continue refining these subjects so that "specific knowledge and assessment criteria" are clear enough for teachers to verify pupil progress.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
