Mixed Primary
8.4/10 Well above average

36th of 425 primary schools in Kent we can score, 460 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 7.3/10 among them, against 8.4/10 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
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 79.0 · 86 62% 5.28
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 14.0 · 81 38% 3.12

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, 79.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 14.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 7.3 out of 10 among them, against 8.4 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Science, Coding, and Shakespeare Clubs, play netball and football, and learn violin, cello, and piano. They also participate in choir, Book Club, and a trip to Westminster Abbey. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 209 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving just 1 spare place. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the high demand for its single remaining place? What support is available for pupils who do not reach the expected standard? How does the after-school club integrate with the main curriculum?
