Kingsnorth Church of England Primary School
Ashford, TN23 3EF · Kent · primary school
212nd of 425 primary schools in Kent we can score, 460 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 — 5.4/10 against 4,105 of them, against 5.5/10 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 | 61.0 · 41 | 40% | 1.66 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| 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.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 61.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 13.0%. 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 (5.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.5 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join the School Choir and music clubs, and visit Kingswood Grosvenor Hall and the Isle of Wight. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 423 pupils in a building with 420 places, meaning it is over capacity by 3. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the 3-pupil overage in daily operations? What specific support is offered to help pupils bridge the 3% gap to the national median in core subjects? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support families?
