16th of 62 primary schools in Newham we can score, 66 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 — 9.7/10 against 2,364 of them, against 9.0/10 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 | 83.0 · 92 | 41% | 3.77 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 33% | 3.20 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 17.0 · 87 | 26% | 2.24 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
