Check the area around this school
9th 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.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 8.4/10 against 4,169 of them, against 8.5/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 77.0 · 82 | 40% | 3.28 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 18.0 · 89 | 25% | 2.23 |
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 Clutton Primary School
Overview
Clutton Primary School continues to be a good school, where pupils describe the environment as a ‘family’ that is kind and welcoming. The school has responded well to previous inspection findings, implementing an ambitious curriculum and maintaining high expectations for behaviour and attendance.
Strengths
- Pupils enjoy a ‘calm and purposeful environment’ and demonstrate high levels of respect and politeness.
- Reading is prioritised effectively, with staff ensuring books match pupils’ phonics knowledge to build ‘confidence and fluency’.
- Mathematics teaching provides clear explanations and modelling, helping pupils build secure understanding of concepts.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive precise support and learn the same curriculum as their peers.
- Personal development is a strength, with pupils understanding fundamental British values and treating everyone with respect.
Areas to improve
- Checks on pupils’ knowledge in some wider curriculum subjects, such as religious education, are not fully effective, causing some pupils to struggle to recall previous learning.
- The trust must ensure the school uses assessment effectively so that pupils ‘learn and remember the curriculum successfully in all subjects’.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
