75th 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 the 3,508 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.8/10 among them, against 3.3/10 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 | 60.0 · 39 | 40% | 1.56 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 2.0 · 24 | 25% | 0.59 |
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 Meadow Green Primary School
Overview
Meadow Green Primary School is described as a "welcoming and inclusive" environment where pupils are happy and feel safe. The inspection found that pupils achieve well, behave very well, and are prepared for life in modern Britain through a broad curriculum. However, the report notes that curriculum implementation is not consistently effective across all subjects.
Strengths
- Pupils are "happy to be a part of this welcoming and inclusive school" and feel safe because "trusted adults look after them."
- The school has designed an "ambitious and broad curriculum" with carefully planned knowledge and key vocabulary to help pupils "make connections in their learning."
- Reading is a strong area; staff read daily, the phonics scheme is "well embedded," and pupils are "excited and enthused" by new books.
- Children in the early years "get off to a flying start," with adults encouraging talk and vocabulary use to prepare them for Year 1.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are "well supported" and achieve well through accurate identification and timely external support.
Areas to improve
- Leaders do not systematically check the impact of their work in a small number of subjects, meaning they lack a clear view of what needs improvement.
- In some subjects, staff do not choose the most effective learning activities, preventing pupils from securing knowledge to the depth required to build learning over time.
Safeguarding
The report states that "the arrangements for safeguarding are effective."
