Chew Magna Primary School
Bristol, BS40 8RQ · Bath and North East Somerset · primary school
34th of 53 primary schools in Bath and North East Somerset we can score, 63 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 2,183 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.0/10 among them, against 4.3/10 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 | 69.0 · 63 | 40% | 2.51 |
| 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.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 69.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in October 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.0 out of 10 among them, against 4.3 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join sewing, choir, guitar, and ukulele clubs, play football, hockey, and netball, and attend Christmas Theatre trips. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 95 pupils in a capacity of 105 places, leaving 10 spare spots. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What specific activities are included in the Golden Eagle Class Enrichment Week? How does the school maintain its Good rating following the 2023 inspection?
