12th of 73 primary schools in Nottingham we can score, 74 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 — 8.7/10 against 2,458 of them, against 7.6/10 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
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 74.0 · 76 | 40% | 3.02 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 13.0 · 78 | 25% | 1.94 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Hogarth Academy
Overview
Hogarth Academy continues to be a good school, where staff are determined to empower all pupils to be well prepared for the next stage of their education. Pupils respond enthusiastically to high expectations, displaying positive behaviour and a keen desire to work hard. The school fosters a supportive environment where children feel safe, valued, and engaged in a wide range of leadership opportunities and activities.
Strengths
- The curriculum is ambitious and well-sequenced, with staff making appropriate adjustments to meet pupil needs and providing effective support for those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND).
- Staff benefit from high-quality training, equipping them with sound subject knowledge and enabling them to prioritise building pupils’ vocabulary and connect learning over time.
- Reading is given the highest priority, with a well-structured phonics programme and a library that ensures pupils have exposure to high-quality texts.
- Pupils’ personal development is carefully considered, with opportunities to reflect on values, learn about diversity, and live healthy lives through activities like field trips.
- Governance fulfils responsibilities diligently, and staff morale is high due to leaders’ consideration of their well-being and professional development.
Areas to improve
- In some subjects, staff do not accurately check what pupils have remembered over time, leading to gaps in learning that are not fully addressed.
- There are minor inconsistencies in how well staff teach phonics, meaning some pupils do not always learn to read as quickly as they could.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
