Fair Field Junior School
Radlett, WD7 8LU · Hertfordshire · primary school
158th 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.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 6.1/10 against 3,660 of them, against 5.9/10 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 | 73.0 · 73 | 40% | 2.93 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 4.0 · 35 | 25% | 0.88 |
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, 73.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 4.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2023. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (6.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.9 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the Junior Duke Award, Poetry Busk, and Fair Field's Got Talent, with trips to the beach and Hazard Alley.
Getting in. The school has 215 pupils in a capacity of 240, leaving 25 spare places. It has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What provisions exist for children arriving late or leaving early, given the lack of breakfast or after-school clubs? How does the Junior Duke Award integrate with the daily curriculum?
