25th of 90 primary schools in Bristol, City of we can score, 102 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 — 6.7/10 against 1,202 of them, against 5.3/10 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 | 71.0 · 68 | 41% | 2.78 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 34% | 1.76 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 3.0 · 29 | 26% | 0.75 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Oasis Academy New Oak
Overview
Pupils enjoy attending this “nurturing school” where there is a “strong culture of respect” and high attendance. The report highlights that leaders work hard to develop positive relationships, ensuring children are “happy and safe” while fostering inclusion and mutual understanding among pupils.
Strengths
- Leaders prioritise reading, using “carefully chosen” key texts to help pupils develop “increasing understanding and fluency.”
- The curriculum is “ambitious” and well-organised in key stages 1 and 2, ensuring pupils “know more and remember more over time.”
- Personal development is “exceptional,” with a focus on building “strength of character, competence and sense of community.”
- Assessment is used effectively to identify knowledge gaps, particularly in mathematics, preventing pupils from moving on until they have “mastered key concepts.”
- The curriculum is “well adapted” for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities, with teaching “skilfully tailored to individual needs.”
Areas to improve
- Leaders must ensure the curriculum is “clearly linked across all key stages” so pupils build effectively on early years knowledge when starting Year 1.
- Staff must use agreed teaching strategies “consistently across the school” to ensure pupils learn equally well in all subjects and classes.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are “effective,” with staff knowing how to keep pupils safe and concerns being “shared and acted on effectively and in a timely way.”
