Maidensbridge Primary School

Kingswinford, DY6 0HX · Dudley · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2022 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
7.0/10 Above average

13th of 76 primary schools in Dudley we can score, 78 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 the 2,143 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.5/10 among them, against 7.9/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 80.0 · 88 40% 3.51

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, 80.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 10.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in November 2022. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.5 out of 10 among them, against 7.9 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the Junior Leadership Team, House Captains, Sports Leaders, Librarian, School Council, Charity Ambassadors, The Green Team, and Anti-Bullying Ambassadors. Sports include football, tennis, dodgeball, rugby, a multi-skills event, and swimming, while the VIVO Choir provides musical opportunities. There is no breakfast or after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 236 pupils in a capacity of 210, meaning it is over capacity by 26. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity? What support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard? How are the leadership roles structured to ensure all pupils can participate?
