Mixed Primary
5.4/10 Broadly average

26th of 57 primary schools in North Somerset we can score, 64 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 — 5.3/10 against 4,105 of them, against 5.4/10 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

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 73.0 · 73 62% 4.51
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 2.0 · 24 38% 0.92

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 with the national median of 64%. Only 2.0% reached the higher standard. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (5.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.4 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils attend a residential trip to Kilve Court. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. There are 448 pupils in a school with 420 places, meaning it is over capacity by 28. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the waitlist for new admissions given the current over-capacity status? What specific support is available for the small group of pupils aiming for the higher standard? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support daily routines?
