Nailsworth Church of England Primary School
STROUD, GL6 0ET · Gloucestershire · primary school
9th of 219 primary schools in Gloucestershire we can score, 242 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 — 9.3/10 against 2,713 of them, against 8.6/10 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 | 76.0 · 80 | 62% | 4.91 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 24.0 · 95 | 38% | 3.67 |
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, 76.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 24.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.6 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs for Lego, Woodwork, Martial Arts, Fencing, Reading for Pleasure, Nature, and Gardening. Sports include Football, Netball, Rugby, Cross Country, Gymnastics, Athletics, Cricket, and Table Tennis. Music lessons cover Piano, Guitar, Violin, Cello, and Drums. Trips visit the Stroud and Nailsworth Literature Festivals, Gloucester Cathedral, and the Bristol Zoo Project. There is no breakfast or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 176 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving 34 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How do you support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What does the daily timetable look like for a child joining a class smaller than the building’s capacity? How do you integrate the various music and sports clubs into the core curriculum?
