Mixed Primary
9.4/10 Well above average

6th of 259 primary schools in Birmingham we can score, 293 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 — 9.9/10 against 703 of them, against 9.4/10 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
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 83.0 · 92 62% 5.65
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 28.0 · 97 38% 3.74

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, 83.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 28.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.4 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. The school offers both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. There are 450 pupils in a school with 630 places, leaving 180 spare places. The school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How do you support pupils who are not yet meeting the expected standard in maths? With 180 spare places, how do you ensure the smaller class sizes translate into more individual attention? How does the after-school club integrate with the main curriculum to reinforce learning?
