Moorlands Junior School
Bath, BA2 2DE · Bath and North East Somerset · primary school
40th of 53 primary schools in Bath and North East Somerset we can score, 63 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 4,227 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.6/10 among them, against 2.6/10 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 | 55.0 · 28 | 40% | 1.10 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 2.0 · 24 | 25% | 0.60 |
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, 55.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 2.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.6 out of 10 among them, against 2.6 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Orchestra, Rock Steady, Science Art club, ulti skills, Martial Arts, and Dance groups, or play Football, Netball, and Cricket. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 237 pupils in a capacity of 249, leaving 12 spare places. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With 12 places remaining, how does the school manage waiting lists for new starters? Since the school lacks a breakfast club, what support is offered for early morning arrivals? How does the curriculum address the gap between the 55.0% expected standard and the 64% national median?
