Needwood CofE Primary School
Burton-on-Trent, DE13 8SU · Staffordshire · primary school
137th of 217 primary schools in Staffordshire we can score, 309 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 4,045 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.7/10 among them, against 4.4/10 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 | 62% | 2.40 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 7.0 · 51 | 38% | 1.96 |
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, 60.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.7 out of 10 among them, against 4.4 out of 10 nationally.
Getting in. The school has 73 pupils in a building with 90 places, leaving 17 spare spots. 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 does the school support pupils who are not reaching the expected standard in core subjects? What specific activities or trips are available to pupils during the school day? How does the school manage class sizes given the current number of spare places?
