Mixed Primary
6.3/10 Broadly average

79th of 301 primary schools in Hampshire we can score, 423 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 — 7.4/10 against 2,472 of them, against 6.3/10 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

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 72.0 · 71 62% 4.35
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, 72.0% 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 (7.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 6.3 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Dance, Gymnastics, Yoga, Archery, Choir, Dodgeball, and Football clubs. Trips include RHS Wisley, Fbro Airport, Butser Farm, and PGL. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.

Getting in. The school has 238 pupils in a capacity of 240, leaving 2 spare places. With so few vacancies, securing a place is likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the transition for children when places are this limited? What specific support is offered to the 7.0% who reach the higher standard? How are the numerous clubs scheduled to ensure all pupils can participate?
