Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
7.4/10 Above average

57th of 340 primary schools in Hertfordshire we can score, 401 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 2,385 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 7.7/10 among them, against 8.6/10 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, 83.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 13.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in April 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 7.7 out of 10 among them, against 8.6 out of 10 nationally.

Getting in. The school has 449 pupils in a capacity of 460, leaving 11 spare places. With such limited availability, places are likely to be competitive for new applicants.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in core subjects? What specific activities are available for children during lunchtimes or after school? How does the admissions process work when demand exceeds the 11 remaining places?
