Mixed Primary Church of England
5.5/10 Broadly average

24th of 91 primary schools in North Northamptonshire we can score, 111 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 6.3/10 against 2,644 of them, against 5.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 67.0 · 57 62% 3.50
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 7.0 · 51 38% 1.96

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, 67.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (6.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.5 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Times Tables Rockstars, Spelling Shed, Mindfulness Colouring, and Board Games clubs, or play Hotshots Basketball and GLK Gymnastics. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 238 pupils in a capacity of 240, leaving just 2 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With only 2 places remaining, how does the school manage the waiting list for new starters? Since there is no breakfast club, what options exist for early morning care? How does the school support pupils who need extra help to reach the higher standard in core subjects?
