Check the area around this school
158th of 218 primary schools in Gloucestershire we can score, 241 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 4,206 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.7/10 among them, against 3.1/10 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 | 57.0 · 32 | 41% | 1.31 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 34% | 1.76 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 3.0 · 29 | 26% | 0.75 |
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 Mitton Manor Primary School
Overview
Mitton Manor Primary School continues to be a good school, characterised by a "buzz of happy activity" where pupils are polite, sociable, and feel safe. Leaders and staff maintain high expectations, delivering a broad and exciting curriculum that fosters a strong sense of community and enjoyment in learning.
Strengths
- Pupils behave impeccably, are kind to one another, and thoroughly enjoy school, with bullying not tolerated.
- Teachers plan, teach, and assess learning effectively, enabling pupils to progress well through a well-sequenced curriculum.
- Staff are keen for all pupils to develop a love of reading, providing extra support for those who find it difficult.
- The mathematics and history curricula provide rich, immersive learning experiences, such as using practical resources for fractions and discussing historical sources.
- Leaders provide targeted support for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities, working closely with external agencies when necessary.
Areas to improve
- Phonics teaching is not consistently strong, as reading books do not closely match the sounds pupils are learning and teaching does not routinely help pupils apply phonics to spelling.
- Leaders must fully embed the new phonics programme and routinely check its impact to ensure pupils become confident, fluent readers and writers.
- Leaders are committed to further improving communication with parents to address concerns and gain their confidence.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with staff prioritising pupil safety, maintaining thorough records, and ensuring all necessary checks are made for adults working with children.
