Hamilton Academy
High Wycombe, HP13 6SG · Buckinghamshire · primary school
95th of 142 primary schools in Buckinghamshire we can score, 184 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 — 4.5/10 against 3,144 of them, against 4.5/10 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 | 59.0 · 37 | 40% | 1.47 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 8.0 · 57 | 25% | 1.43 |
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, 59.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 8.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2024. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (4.5 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Camera, Choir, Cookery, Gardening, Lego, and Mindfulness clubs, or play Athletics, Cricket, Darts, and Netball. There is no breakfast or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 656 pupils in a building with 628 places, meaning it is over capacity by 28. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity for new admissions? What support is available for pupils who do not reach the expected standard in maths? How do parents arrange care before and after school hours?
