Newnham St Peter's Church of England Primary School

Newnham, GL14 1AT · Gloucestershire · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
6.0/10 Broadly average

74th 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 the 3,213 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.9/10 among them, against 6.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 67.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 13.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in October 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.9 out of 10 among them, against 6.5 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. The school offers a Forest School Club and a Newnham Choir. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available for wraparound care.

Getting in. There are 133 pupils in a school with 140 places, leaving 7 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are not yet meeting the expected standard in maths? What specific activities take place during the Forest School Club sessions? How does the school manage the transition for children moving from the breakfast club into the main school day?
