Worcester, WR4 9SG · Worcestershire · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
4.2/10 Broadly average

71st of 113 primary schools in Worcestershire we can score, 180 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 — 4.2/10 against 1,879 of them, against 3.6/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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 4.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (4.2 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.6 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Young Voices, Cross stitch, Chess, Christmas choir, Yoga, Forest school, and Engineering clubs, alongside Netball, Multi-skills, Football, Futsal, Tag rugby, and Gardening. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 399 pupils in a school with 393 places, meaning it is over capacity by 6. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who need extra help to reach the national median in literacy? What are the specific entry requirements for new families given the school is over capacity? How do parents manage the lack of wraparound care before and after the school day?
