52nd of 82 primary schools in Coventry we can score, 85 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 4,194 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4/10 among them, against 2.4/10 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 | 53.0 · 24 | 40% | 0.96 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 2.0 · 24 | 25% | 0.59 |
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 Eastern Green Junior School
Overview
Eastern Green Junior School continues to be a good school, providing a welcoming environment where pupils are "well educated" and become "confident individuals." Leaders maintain high expectations, fostering a culture of respect and safety that supports strong academic achievement and positive behaviour.
Strengths
- The curriculum is described as "ambitious" and interests pupils, with teachers using visual images and strategies like ‘fluent in five’ to support mathematical proficiency.
- Reading is a strength; staff provide "daily targeted support" for those needing help, ensuring pupils leave school reading with "accuracy, expression, and confidence."
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) access the same curriculum as their classmates and "achieve well" due to quick identification of support needs.
- Behaviour is excellent, with bullying being "rare" and quickly resolved, while pupils actively participate in leadership roles such as "anti-bullying ambassadors" and "eco-warriors."
- Staff are "caring" and work as a team, creating a supportive atmosphere where the headteacher is "well respected" and staff workload is managed effectively.
Areas to improve
- In a few subjects, the curriculum is still being refined, resulting in "gaps in pupils’ knowledge"; leaders must ensure the curriculum is "fully embedded" to eradicate these gaps.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with staff trained to notice changes in behaviour and working closely with external agencies to ensure families receive the right help.
