Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2023 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
2.4/10 Below average

64th of 72 primary schools in Herefordshire, County of we can score, 78 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 3,780 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.0/10 among them, against 3.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Get to know the school

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 56.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 6.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in November 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.0 out of 10 among them, against 3.5 out of 10 nationally.

Getting in. The school has 92 pupils in a building with 140 places, leaving 48 spare spots. This means there is real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than the school is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school plan to raise attainment from the current 56.0% to meet national expectations? What specific actions have been taken since the 2023 inspection to address the "Requires improvement" rating? How do the smaller class sizes resulting from the 48 spare places affect individual pupil support?
